A heavy, slab-serif design with broad proportions, thick rectangular serifs, and gently rounded joins that keep the overall color dense but not harsh. Strokes are strongly weighted with subtle modulation, and counters are relatively compact, giving the face a solid, poster-like presence. The lowercase shows a tall x-height and simplified forms, with single-storey a and g, a round i/j dot, and a softly curved ear on r; terminals often feel squared-off with slight bracketing into the slabs. Spacing appears generous for such a heavy cut, helping maintain legibility in large settings and in tightly packed lines.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and display typography where maximum impact is needed. It also works well for branding systems that want a retro or craft-forward voice, and for signage where chunky slabs and open shapes help letters stay recognizable at a distance.
The tone is bold and approachable—evoking vintage signage and editorial headlines with a dependable, workmanlike confidence. Its chunky slabs and rounded details read as friendly rather than severe, making it suitable for energetic, down-to-earth branding.
This font appears designed to deliver a high-impact slab-serif look with a warm, approachable finish—combining sturdy, rectangular serifs with softened curves for a contemporary take on vintage display typography.
Uppercase shapes lean geometric and full, with a wide, circular O/Q and a sturdy, straight-sided U; diagonals in V/W/X are thick and emphatic. Numerals match the weight and width, presenting as strong, billboard-ready figures that hold their shape in dense text blocks.
