A heavy, compact display serif with squared silhouettes, broad verticals, and subtly flared, wedge-like terminals that read as stylized serifs rather than slabs. Curves are squarish and tightened (notably in C, O, and S), with flattened bowls and crisp interior counters that keep a strong, engineered rhythm. Corners often show small notches and chamfered cuts, giving the outlines a constructed, almost cut-metal feel. Numerals and lowercase follow the same blocky logic, with a sturdy, monoline impression and clear, high-impact shapes.
Best suited for short, high-visibility copy such as headlines, posters, signage, and logo wordmarks. It also fits packaging and label design where a sturdy, vintage-industrial or western-tinged voice is desired. Extended text will feel dense and attention-grabbing, so it’s most effective when used sparingly.
The tone is bold and commanding with a distinctly retro-industrial flavor. Its flared terminals and notched details evoke signage, sports lettering, and western-leaning display typography, giving text a confident, rugged presence. The overall impression is functional and tough rather than delicate or literary.
The likely intention is a high-impact display serif that blends traditional serif cues with constructed, angular forms for a tough, graphic presence. Its squared rounds and flared terminals appear designed to reference vintage signage and bold titling while maintaining strong legibility at large sizes.
The design maintains consistent weight and geometry across cases, but introduces enough angular quirks to feel decorative. Spacing and proportions appear tuned for display sizes, where the squared counters and small notches remain legible and contribute to the font’s character.
