A heavy, slab-serif design with broad proportions, low stroke modulation, and assertive rectangular serifs. Terminals and joins show subtly softened corners and slight roughness in the contours, creating an inked, pressed feel rather than a perfectly geometric finish. Counters are relatively compact and apertures tend toward closed, giving the face strong color and dense texture in paragraphs. The numerals and capitals carry a solid, poster-ready stance, while the lowercase maintains a straightforward, utilitarian rhythm.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and display typography where a strong slab presence is desired. It also fits packaging, labels, and brand systems that want an industrial or heritage voice, and can work in editorial settings for section heads, pull quotes, and short bursts of emphasis.
The overall tone is sturdy and no-nonsense, with a vintage, print-shop character. It feels bold and dependable, evoking industrial labels, newspaper headline energy, and old-school editorial typography. The slight irregularity adds warmth and grit without tipping into novelty.
Likely designed as a dependable slab serif with a slightly distressed or inked finish, aiming to combine workhorse readability with a vintage, tactile print impression. The emphasis is on bold presence, consistent rhythm, and a recognizable, sturdy silhouette.
Spacing appears generous enough to keep the heavy shapes from clogging in text, while the softened detailing helps large blocks of type feel less rigid. The face reads best where strong contrast against the background is available and where dense typographic color is a benefit.
