A condensed slab-serif with heavy, squared-off serifs and blunt terminals throughout. Strokes are largely monolinear, producing a compact, high-ink rhythm with crisp vertical emphasis and narrow internal counters. The proportions are tall and tightly set, with a notably tall x-height and short ascenders/descenders, giving lowercase a dense, stacked silhouette. Curves are restrained and slightly squared at joins, while round letters keep firm, vertical-sided bowls; the overall texture is dark, even, and highly structured.
Best suited to display settings where space is tight but strong presence is needed—headlines, posters, packaging, labels, and wordmarks. It can also work for short bursts of text (captions or callouts) when a dense, industrial texture is desired, though extended body copy may feel heavy due to the compact counters and dark color.
The font projects a tough, workmanlike tone with a touch of vintage signage. Its narrow build and blocky detailing read as authoritative and no-nonsense, evoking printed labels, stamped goods, and old industrial or Western display typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow width while maintaining clear, sturdy letterforms. Its squared slabs and controlled curves suggest an aim toward functional readability with a distinctly vintage, print-forward character.
Caps and figures appear designed for impact, with consistent slab treatment and strong verticals that keep word shapes compact. The numerals share the same condensed, sturdy construction, and the punctuation (including the ampersand) matches the squared, robust voice, helping mixed-case settings stay visually uniform.
