A heavy slab-serif with squared, flat-ended terminals and a mostly rectilinear construction. Strokes are thick with minimal contrast, and the serifs read as blunt blocks that emphasize the baseline and cap line. Counters are fairly open for the weight, while joins and curves stay taut and controlled, giving round letters a slightly squared-off feel. The overall rhythm is steady and dense, producing strong color in text and a confident presence in headlines.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where a strong, sturdy voice is needed. It can also work for editorial display settings such as section headers or pull quotes, and for signage where bold forms and blunt serifs help maintain presence at a distance.
The font conveys a solid, no-nonsense tone with a retro printing and industrial signage flavor. Its blunt slabs and firm geometry feel dependable and institutional, lending an assertive, workmanlike character without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a forceful slab-serif voice with squared terminals and a stable, print-forward texture. It prioritizes impact and clarity through thick strokes, simple detailing, and consistent, block-like serifs.
In the sample text, the heavy slabs create clear word shapes and a pronounced horizontal emphasis. Numerals appear sturdy and straightforward, matching the letters’ blocky terminals and consistent weight.
