A compact, heavy slab serif with a distinctly block-built silhouette and square, flat-ended terminals. Strokes are largely even in thickness, with broad, rectangular serifs and tight interior counters that emphasize a dark, solid color on the page. Curves (like C, G, O, and S) are squared off into rounded-rectangle forms, while joins and shoulders stay blunt and sturdy. Uppercase forms read tall and condensed, and the lowercase keeps a straightforward, workmanlike construction with a simple single-storey a and sturdy stems.
This style excels in short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, labels, and signage where strong presence and compact width are valuable. It also suits branding and packaging that want a sturdy, vintage-industrial voice, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the squared counters and slab details can breathe.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a vintage display flavor that nods to old wood-type, storefront signage, and utilitarian print. Its dense weight and squared details feel confident, rugged, and slightly nostalgic.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum visual punch in a condensed footprint, combining heavy slabs and squared curves for a robust, display-first texture that holds together in dense settings.
Spacing appears deliberately tight, reinforcing a compact rhythm and making the letterforms feel packed and forceful. Numerals are equally weighty and straightforward, matching the blocky texture of the letters for consistent impact in mixed copy.
