Slab Square Poje 9 is a bold, normal width, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'City' by Berthold, 'Athletico Clean' and 'Collegium' by GRIN3 (Nowak), 'Courage Union' by Invasi Studio, and 'Drunk College' by Woodcutter (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, block-built slab serif with squared contours and crisp, flat terminals. Strokes keep a largely even, monoline feel, while corners are chamfered to create an octagonal rhythm in rounds like C, O, and G. Serifs are broad and rectangular, producing strong vertical emphasis and stable baselines; counters are relatively tight, and apertures tend to be restrained for a compact, punchy color. Uppercase forms read like signage lettering, while the lowercase follows the same squared construction with sturdy stems and simplified bowls.
Best suited to display roles where impact and legibility at a distance matter: headlines, posters, team or club identities, apparel graphics, packaging, and wayfinding-style signage. It can also work for short subheads or labels where a rugged, structured voice is desired, but will feel heavy for long-form reading.
The overall tone is confident and utilitarian, with a classic collegiate and workwear energy. Its hard angles and dense weight suggest toughness and authority, leaning toward vintage athletic branding and industrial labeling rather than delicate or expressive text typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, immediately recognizable slab-serif voice built from simple, squared geometry. By combining broad rectangular serifs with chamfered curves and consistent stroke weight, it aims for high-impact readability and a distinctive, heritage-leaning display character.
Figures match the same squared, chamfered construction as the letters, with a particularly strong, emblematic presence at display sizes. The design’s consistent geometry helps maintain uniform texture, though the tight counters and blunt joins create a deliberately dense, poster-ready look.
