A heavy, block-driven slab serif with squared, unbracketed serifs and largely uniform stroke weight. The shapes favor straight-sided geometry and rounded corners, producing a solid, machined look rather than calligraphic modulation. Counters are generous but tightly framed by thick strokes; curves on forms like C, G, O, and S are broad and controlled, while terminals remain blunt and rectangular. Uppercase proportions feel commanding with wide caps and firm horizontals, and the lowercase maintains a large, readable core with sturdy stems and short, crisp serifs. Numerals match the same chunky construction, with clear openings and strong baseline presence.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, posters, storefront signage, labels, and bold brand marks where a firm, durable voice is needed. It can work for short subheads or pull quotes, but its dense texture makes it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is confident and workmanlike, with a classic poster-and-signage energy. Its bold, squared serifs evoke heritage American printing—part industrial, part frontier—while staying clean and contemporary in its finish.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a rugged, dependable slab-serif voice. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, clear structure, and an even, mechanical rhythm to perform in advertising and signage contexts.
In text, the strong vertical rhythm and substantial serifs create a pronounced texture that reads best with comfortable tracking and moderate line spacing. The design’s blunt terminals and rounded interior corners help prevent the weight from feeling brittle, keeping the silhouette cohesive at display sizes.
