A heavy, blocky slab serif with generous proportions and low stroke modulation. The serifs are thick and mostly square, softened by rounded corners and subtle bracketing that keeps joins from feeling abrupt. Counters are open and shapes are broadly drawn, giving the letters a steady rhythm and clear silhouettes, with consistent weight through stems and bowls. Numerals match the robust texture, reading evenly alongside caps and lowercase in continuous text.
Well-suited to headlines and short blocks of copy where a solid, assertive texture is desired, and it also holds together in editorial settings thanks to clear letterforms and steady spacing. Its robust slabs make it a good fit for packaging and signage where clarity and impact need to coexist.
The overall tone is dependable and workmanlike, with a traditional, print-forward presence. Its chunky slabs and rounded detailing lend a friendly sturdiness rather than a sharp or formal feel, making it read as confident and practical.
The font appears designed as a straightforward, durable slab serif meant to deliver strong emphasis with minimal fuss. It prioritizes stable proportions, consistent weight, and readable shapes to function as a reliable choice across both display and text-like applications.
The design maintains a uniform, dark color on the page, with spacing that supports dense paragraphs without losing character definition. Rounded terminals and softened corners help prevent the heavy weight from looking harsh, especially at larger display sizes.
