A heavy slab serif with broad proportions and a compact, blocky silhouette. Strokes are thick and even, with softened corners and blunt slab terminals that read as sturdy and slightly rounded rather than sharp. Counters are relatively small and apertures tend to be tight, giving the face a dense, ink-rich texture; the lowercase stays simple and utilitarian with single-storey forms where expected. Numerals match the overall mass and presence, maintaining consistent weight and a stable baseline feel.
Best suited to display contexts where weight and presence are desired, such as headlines, posters, storefront or wayfinding signage, and packaging. It can also work for short editorial callouts or section headers where a solid, approachable slab tone is needed, but it may feel heavy for extended body text.
The overall tone is bold and dependable, with a friendly, slightly nostalgic warmth. Its softened slabs and dense color suggest traditional print—signage, packaging, and editorial display—without feeling ornate or fussy.
Designed to deliver a straightforward, workhorse slab-serif voice with maximum impact and clear, stable forms. The softened terminals and consistent weight suggest an intention to balance authority with approachability for bold typographic statements.
The rhythm is steady and emphatic, with strong word shapes created by wide letterforms and pronounced serifs. At smaller sizes the tight counters and heavy joins can reduce openness, while at larger sizes the rounded slabs and uniform weight create a cohesive, impactful look.
