A heavy, slab-serif display face with broad proportions and a compact, high-impact texture. Strokes show noticeable contrast between thick verticals and thinner joins, while the serifs read as chunky, mostly bracketed slabs that create firm terminals and a grounded baseline. Counters are relatively tight and the letterforms are built on blunt, rectangular geometry with softly rounded transitions, giving the shapes a dense, poster-ready rhythm. The overall impression is sturdy and slightly condensed in internal space rather than in width, producing strong word silhouettes at large sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks of display text where strong serifs and dense color can work as a visual anchor. It fits editorial layouts, sports/collegiate-style branding, packaging, and signage where a bold, authoritative voice is desired.
The tone is assertive and traditional, with a classic print-and-poster sensibility. It carries a collegiate and editorial flavor—serious, dependable, and attention-grabbing—without feeling delicate or overly formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact and clarity through heavy slabs, robust proportions, and controlled contrast, echoing vintage print and woodtype-inspired display traditions while staying clean and legible in contemporary layouts.
The numerals match the letters in weight and presence, maintaining the same squared, slab-anchored structure. Diacritics and punctuation in the sample read clearly at headline scale, and the bold serifs help preserve character definition in dense settings.
