A heavy, expanded slab serif with broad proportions and a compact, block-forward silhouette. Strokes are robust with noticeable (but not delicate) contrast, and the serifs read as thick, squared slabs with slight bracketing that helps joins feel reinforced rather than sharp. Counters are relatively open for the weight, and curves (C, O, S) stay round but are tightly controlled, giving an engineered rhythm. Terminals and joins show subtle notches and squared-off decisions that keep the forms crisp at display sizes, while the overall spacing and widths create a strong horizontal emphasis.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a wide, emphatic voice is needed. The strong slabs and broad widths also work well for packaging and signage that benefits from an assertive, classic display serif presence, and for sports or collegiate-style identity systems.
The tone is confident and workmanlike, with a faint Western/wood-type flavor and an institutional, collegiate steadiness. It feels authoritative and headline-driven—more about impact and presence than delicacy or neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, high-impact slab serif with a vintage wood-type and industrial print sensibility—prioritizing punchy letterforms, stable serifs, and clear word shapes at larger sizes.
The lowercase maintains a sturdy, print-oriented build with single-storey forms where expected and prominent slab footings that create a consistent baseline. Numerals are similarly broad and weighty, matching the caps’ visual density and making the set feel cohesive for loud, high-contrast-in-mass typography.
