A heavy slab serif with broad, sturdy forms and softened corners. Strokes are largely monolinear, with minimal contrast and a steady rhythm that keeps counters open despite the weight. Serifs are thick and blocky with gentle bracketing, giving terminals a cushioned, slightly rounded feel rather than sharp cuts. The lowercase is compact and robust, with single-storey a and g, and overall spacing that reads solid and even in text.
Best suited to headlines and short blocks of text where weight and presence are desired—posters, signage, packaging, and bold brand wordmarks. It can also work for subheads and pull quotes, especially in layouts that benefit from a sturdy, high-impact slab serif.
The tone is bold and approachable—more workwear than formal, with a subtle vintage flavor. Its chunky slabs and rounded joins lend a friendly, grounded character that feels dependable and straightforward rather than delicate or refined.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with clear, readable shapes, pairing the authority of slab serifs with softened details for warmth. It aims to feel practical and versatile, functioning as a dependable display workhorse with a subtly retro edge.
Capitals show strong, stable silhouettes with wide feet and clear slab endings, while curves (C, G, O, S) stay smooth and full at this weight. Numerals are similarly blocky and legible, matching the letterforms’ sturdy, no-nonsense construction.
