A broad, low-contrast slab serif with square-ended terminals and firm, bracketless serifs that read as integrated blocks at the stroke ends. The letterforms are generously proportioned with wide set widths and ample interior space, producing clear counters and a steady horizontal rhythm. Curves are drawn with a slightly geometric, flattened feel, while joins stay crisp and controlled; diagonals remain sturdy rather than sharp. Overall spacing appears comfortable and consistent, supporting a solid, even color in text while retaining strong headline presence.
Best suited to display and short-to-medium text where its wide proportions and strong slabs can establish a clear voice—headlines, posters, labels, and identity systems. It can also work for pull quotes or UI titling where a bold, dependable presence is desired and horizontal space is available.
The tone is sturdy and pragmatic with a retro-industrial edge. Its wide stance and emphatic slab details convey confidence and reliability, suggesting signage, printcraft, or engineered branding rather than delicate or literary moods.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust slab-serif voice with clear, open forms and strong terminal structure. It prioritizes steady readability and an assertive silhouette, aiming for a practical, brand-friendly style that holds up in bold applications like print titles and signage.
The figures and lowercase show the same squared-off terminal logic as the capitals, reinforcing a cohesive, machined texture. The shapes favor openness and legibility over finesse, with a confident baseline and assertive serifs that remain visible at smaller sizes.
