A heavy, block-built slab serif with squared terminals, broad proportions, and a compact, rectangular silhouette. Strokes are uniform and dense, with tight internal counters that read as crisp cutouts; several joins show small notches that suggest ink-trap-like detailing. The letterforms favor flat horizontals and verticals with minimal curvature, creating a strong, mechanical rhythm. Spacing appears compact in text, with a consistent, emphatic color across lines.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, labels, and branding marks where strong presence is needed. It can work for brief text blocks at larger sizes, but the tight counters and dense weight suggest prioritizing display sizes over extended reading.
The overall tone is tough and workmanlike, with a retro display energy that feels at home on bold headlines. Its squared slabs and dense forms project confidence and utility, evoking industrial signage and athletic or collegiate branding.
Designed to deliver maximum visual impact with a sturdy slab-serif structure and squared, no-nonsense detailing. The emphasis appears to be on legibility at a glance and a consistent, industrial display texture across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The uppercase has a particularly strong, squared presence, while the lowercase maintains the same blocky logic and compact counters for a cohesive voice. Numerals are similarly sturdy and rectangular, matching the font’s sign-painter/label-like solidity.
