A heavy, compact serif with subtly flared stroke endings and squared-off, slightly softened corners. The letterforms lean toward geometric construction, with broad, sturdy stems, tight apertures, and rounded internal counters that read clearly at display sizes. Capitals are tall and emphatic with flattened terminals, while the lowercase stays relatively compact with a straightforward, upright rhythm. Numerals are wide and block-like, matching the dense texture and strong vertical emphasis of the alphabet.
Best suited to headlines and short-form display typography where its dense weight and compact shapes can deliver strong impact—posters, signage, packaging, and brand marks. It can also work for large-size pull quotes or section titles where a sturdy, vintage-leaning presence is desired.
The overall tone feels bold and assertive with a vintage, poster-forward character. Its chunky silhouettes and flared endings suggest a classic signage or athletic headline mood—confident, utilitarian, and attention-grabbing rather than delicate or bookish.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a compact footprint, combining classic serif cues with flared terminals and geometric, blocky construction. It prioritizes bold readability and a distinctive display voice for attention-driven applications.
Spacing appears tight and the forms are intentionally compact, producing a dark, even typographic color. Distinctive cues include the squared geometry in C/E/F and the rounded-rectangle feel of O/Q/0, giving the design a cohesive, industrial-display personality.
