A heavy, block-built slab serif with pronounced bracketed serifs and softly rounded corners that keep the mass from feeling harsh. Strokes are generally straight and vertical, with compact interior counters and clear, squared-off joins that create a steady, poster-ready texture. Curves (notably in C, G, O, S, and the numerals) are broad and smooth, while terminals show small sculpted notches and subtle pinches that add a faint ink-trap feel at tight joins. Overall spacing and letterfit read generous for such a dense weight, producing an even, emphatic rhythm across lines.
Best suited to display roles where impact and solidity matter: headlines, posters, signage, and bold brand marks. It can also work for short editorial callouts or subheads where a dark, authoritative texture is desirable, though extended small-size body text may feel dense due to the heavy strokes and tight counters.
The tone is bold and dependable with a touch of vintage warmth—suggesting old-school headlines, classic packaging, and editorial gravitas without looking delicate. Its rounded slab details and chunky proportions make it feel approachable and assertive rather than severe.
Designed to deliver maximum presence with a stable, workmanlike slab structure, balancing strong rectangular geometry with softened corners and bracketed serifs for a friendlier, more traditional feel. The small sculpted details at joins appear intended to preserve clarity and keep shapes from clogging as the weight increases.
The numerals follow the same chunky logic as the letters, with strong silhouettes and easily distinguishable forms at display sizes. The sample text shows a dark, consistent color and clear word shapes, with punctuation matching the same heavy, squared construction.
