A sturdy slab serif with squared, flat-ended strokes and crisp, chamfered corners that give many curves an octagonal feel. Stems are straight and evenly weighted, with robust bracketless slabs and tight internal counters. The uppercase is compact and blocky, while the lowercase keeps a traditional serif structure with strong vertical emphasis and clear, mechanical joins. Numerals follow the same angular logic, reading bold and sign-like with consistent edge treatment.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and signage where strong serifs and angular detailing can carry from a distance. It also fits sports and collegiate branding, labels, and packaging that benefit from a tough, traditional display serif with a geometric bite.
The overall tone is assertive and institutional, with a strong collegiate and industrial flavor. Its beveled geometry adds a slightly decorative, vintage edge without becoming ornate, resulting in a confident, workmanlike voice.
The design appears aimed at delivering a bold, classic slab-serif presence with an engineered, chamfered silhouette for extra character. It prioritizes impact and a consistent angular motif to create a recognizable, badge-like texture in text and titles.
The rhythm is dense and stable, with prominent serifs that help lock letters into a solid horizontal line. Angular corner treatments are a defining motif across caps, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive, engineered texture in paragraphs and display settings.
