A sturdy slab serif with heavy, flat-ended serifs and dense, even strokes that create a strong typographic color. The letterforms are broad and steady with squared shoulders, generous counters, and minimal contrast between thick and thin parts. Curves (C, G, O, Q) stay round but are firmly contained by blunt terminals, while diagonals and joins (K, V, W, Y) remain chunky and stable. The lowercase is straightforward and readable with a solid, vertical rhythm and a no-nonsense, workmanlike texture.
Best suited for headlines and short-form text where a bold, stable voice is needed—posters, signage, packaging, and editorial titling. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers where strong typographic hierarchy and a confident, traditional slab-serif presence are desired.
The overall tone is practical and assertive, leaning toward a traditional, utilitarian feel rather than delicate refinement. Its weight and blocky slabs give it an industrial confidence that reads as dependable and slightly rugged, with an editorial authority suitable for emphatic messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact and clarity through heavy slabs, restrained contrast, and straightforward proportions. It aims for a dependable, workhorse slab-serif look that stays legible while projecting authority in display settings.
At display sizes the thick serifs and compact internal spaces produce a strong, poster-like presence. The numerals match the same sturdy construction, maintaining consistent weight and clear silhouettes that fit comfortably alongside the capitals.
