A sturdy slab-serif with heavy, low-contrast strokes and broad proportions. Serifs are thick and mostly squared off with subtle bracketing, giving counters and joins a firmly constructed, machined feel. The lowercase keeps a traditional two-storey “a” and “g” and shows chunky, rectangular terminals; the overall spacing reads open for the weight, supporting strong word shapes in text. Numerals are similarly robust, with clear, straightforward forms that match the blocky serif rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, short blocks of copy, and display settings where weight and presence are an advantage—such as posters, signage, packaging, and brand marks. It can also work for editorial callouts and pull quotes when set with comfortable leading to manage its strong typographic color.
The tone is confident and no-nonsense, leaning toward an industrial, workmanlike voice with a touch of vintage print and campus-poster energy. Its bold presence feels authoritative and dependable, designed to hold attention without relying on ornament or contrast.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, highly legible slab-serif voice with a classic, print-forward structure. It prioritizes sturdy construction, clear silhouettes, and a strong baseline to perform in attention-grabbing layouts and branding contexts.
The typeface maintains a consistent, even color across lines, with stable verticals and generous slab feet that reinforce horizontal alignment. Curves are full and controlled, and the overall rhythm favors clarity and impact over delicacy.
