A very heavy slab serif with blunt, rectangular terminals that are subtly softened by rounded corners and gentle ink-trap-like notches. Strokes are broadly uniform with minimal modulation, producing a dense, blocky texture and strong vertical presence. Counters are compact and often squarish, with tight apertures that emphasize mass over delicacy; curves (notably in C, G, O, S) stay full and robust. Proportions vary noticeably across glyphs, giving the face an energetic, slightly bouncy rhythm while remaining visually consistent in weight and construction.
Best suited to display settings where weight and personality are assets: posters, bold headlines, storefront or event signage, packaging fronts, and logo wordmarks. It can work for short bursts of text (pull quotes, section titles) but is most effective when given space and size so interior shapes stay clear.
The overall tone is bold and approachable, mixing a rugged, old-style poster spirit with a playful softness. Its chunky slabs and compact counters evoke vintage signage and headline typography, reading as confident, informal, and a bit nostalgic rather than refined or corporate.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a sturdy slab-serif framework while keeping the feel friendly and accessible. The softened corners and subtle notches add a handcrafted, vintage-signage flavor, suggesting a font intended for attention-grabbing branding and bold editorial display.
At smaller sizes the tight counters and heavy joins can close in, while at display sizes the distinctive slab terminals and carved notches become a defining character detail. Numerals match the letters’ heavy, rounded-rectangle logic and feel built for emphasis rather than tabular precision.
