A heavy, right-leaning slab serif with sturdy, block-like construction and minimal stroke modulation. Serifs are broad and square-ended, meeting stems cleanly and giving the letterforms a compact, machined feel. Curves are generous and slightly softened at corners, while counters remain open enough to hold up at display sizes. Overall spacing and rhythm read as uniform and gridlike, reinforcing a utilitarian, set-text look.
Best suited to headlines, posters, labels, and packaging where a bold, vintage-industrial voice is desirable. It can work for short text blocks or captions when you want a typewriter-like texture with more weight and presence than typical text faces.
The tone is emphatic and workmanlike, with a classic typewriter/industrial flavor. Its forward slant and chunky slabs add urgency and confidence, while the softened edges keep it approachable rather than severe. The overall impression is retro and practical, suited to designs that want grit without losing clarity.
The design appears intended to deliver a durable, no-nonsense slab-serif voice with a consistent italic energy and strong rectangular terminals, echoing typewriter and industrial printing aesthetics while remaining clean and highly legible at larger sizes.
The numerals and capitals carry a strong, poster-ready presence, and the italic angle is consistent across the set, keeping lines of text lively without becoming calligraphic. The thick slabs and heavy joins create strong horizontal accents, which can be visually dominant in dense paragraphs but effective for short, punchy text.
