A heavy, block-driven slab serif with squared shoulders and flat, rectangular serifs that read as solid caps on stems. The overall construction is low-contrast with broad, even strokes, tight internal counters, and crisp right angles that create a strong, poster-like texture. Curves (C, O, S) are slightly squarish in feel, maintaining a firm geometric rhythm, while joints and terminals stay blunt and decisive rather than tapered or calligraphic.
Best suited to headlines and short statements where mass and presence are desirable—posters, signage, badges, and bold brand marks. It can also work for packaging or editorial display where a strong, structured serif texture is needed, especially at larger sizes.
The tone is assertive and workmanlike, with a familiar vintage “print shop” and collegiate signage feel. Its dense weight and square serifs project stability and authority, lending a straightforward, no-nonsense voice.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through a stout slab-serif skeleton, combining squared terminals and uniform stroke weight to create high visibility and a confident, utilitarian flavor.
Uppercase forms appear particularly impactful in display settings, while the lowercase maintains the same blocky logic with compact apertures and a sturdy, grounded stance. Numerals match the letterforms’ slabby, squared character and feel built for emphasis rather than delicacy.
