A heavy slab-serif with broad proportions, sturdy verticals, and strongly bracketed slabs that flare with a softened, slightly rounded geometry. Counters are generous and apertures stay fairly open, helping the dense weight remain readable. The rhythm is energetic rather than rigid: curves are full, joins are smooth, and terminals lean toward blunt, rectangular finishes. Numerals and caps feel especially blocky and confident, while lowercase keeps a traditional, texty structure with pronounced serifs and robust bowls.
Best suited to headlines, poster typography, storefront or event signage, and bold packaging where strong presence is needed. It can also work for short editorial callouts, section headers, and brand marks that benefit from a rugged, heritage-leaning slab-serif voice.
The tone is bold and self-assured with a distinctly classic, print-forward feel. Its chunky slabs and rounded bracketing evoke vintage editorial and poster typography—serious enough to command attention, but friendly and approachable in longer phrases.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a warm, traditional slab-serif character—combining stout, bracketed serifs and ample counters to stay legible while projecting a vintage, authoritative voice.
In sample text the color is dark and even, producing strong impact at display sizes. The letterforms prioritize solidity over delicacy, with clear differentiation between shapes (notably in the bowls and diagonals) that supports quick scanning in headlines and short paragraphs.
