A heavy, right-leaning slab serif with sturdy, squared-off construction and minimal stroke modulation. The serifs read as broad and supportive, with generally flat terminals and subtle bracketing that keeps corners from feeling overly rigid. Counters are relatively open for the weight, and the overall texture is dense and dark with a steady, punchy rhythm. Uppercase forms feel wide and stable, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward, workmanlike presence with a single-storey-style simplicity in several shapes and a robust, slightly compressed internal spacing.
Best suited to headlines, short subheads, posters, and branding where a bold, fast-moving voice is needed. It can also work well on packaging and signage that benefits from sturdy slab serifs and high visual impact, especially in larger sizes.
The tone is forceful and energetic, combining a no-nonsense industrial sturdiness with a sporty, headline-forward slant. It suggests classic print and poster lettering—confident and a bit nostalgic—without becoming decorative or fussy.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, high-impact slab serif voice with a forward-leaning emphasis, pairing blocky stability with a sense of motion for attention-grabbing display typography.
The italic angle is consistent across cases, giving lines a forward drive that reads well at display sizes. Numerals are equally weighty and built to match the uppercase presence, supporting strong typographic emphasis in mixed text.
