A robust slab-serif with heavy, squared serifs and compact, blocky forms. Strokes show noticeable contrast for such a sturdy design, with strong verticals and slightly lighter joins and curves, creating crisp interior counters. The serifs are broad and firmly attached, with subtle bracketing that softens the transitions without losing weight. Overall rhythm is assertive and dense, with rounded bowls that stay full and controlled, giving text a dark, even color at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and branding where a strong typographic voice is desirable. It also fits packaging, signage, and editorial display settings that benefit from a classic slab-serif presence and high-impact texture.
The tone reads bold and no-nonsense, with a vintage, workmanlike character that nods to traditional poster and newspaper typography. Its chunky slabs and compact curves convey reliability and authority, while the slight contrast adds a touch of refinement that keeps it from feeling purely utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional slab-serif look with maximum impact: big, stable serifs, confident proportions, and enough contrast to keep shapes crisp in large sizes. It’s built to project authority and legibility while evoking familiar heritage and print-era display typography.
Uppercase letterforms feel particularly monumental and sign-like, while the lowercase retains a sturdy, readable structure with simple terminals and strong serifs. Numerals match the weight and presence of the letters, supporting attention-grabbing settings where figures need to stand out.
