A robust slab-serif with thick, square-cut serifs and blunt, flat terminals that give the letterforms a blocky, engineered feel. Strokes are largely monoline with minimal modulation, and the overall build is broad and steady, with generous interior space in round letters. Lowercase shapes read large and legible, with simple, straightforward construction and minimal ornament. Numerals share the same solid, squared-off treatment, keeping texture even across mixed copy.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and display typography where sturdy slab serifs and broad proportions can carry personality. It can also work for editorial pull quotes, packaging, and signage that benefits from a strong, pragmatic presence and clear letterforms.
The font conveys a dependable, no-nonsense tone with a touch of retro editorial character. Its bold, squared detailing feels workmanlike and authoritative rather than delicate, producing a confident, poster-ready voice even in continuous text.
Likely designed to deliver an assertive slab-serif voice with squared detailing and a broad stance, balancing readability with a distinctive, constructed look for impactful display and editorial applications.
Text color is strong and consistent, and the slab details remain prominent at larger sizes where the squared terminals become a defining visual cue. The forms prioritize clarity and stability, creating a steady rhythm suitable for dense settings when ample space is available.
