A heavy, compact slab serif with pronounced bracketed serifs and largely squared-off terminals. Strokes stay mostly even in weight, producing a dense, high-ink color and steady rhythm, while joins and corners are slightly softened to avoid harsh geometry. Counters are relatively tight and the overall proportions feel condensed, with strong vertical emphasis and a sturdy baseline presence. Numerals and capitals read particularly solid and poster-ready, with a consistent, block-built construction across the set.
Well-suited to posters, headlines, and short emphatic copy where a compact, forceful presence is needed. It also fits branding applications such as packaging, labels, and wordmarks that benefit from a rugged, heritage-inspired slab serif voice. In longer passages it will read best at comfortable sizes due to its dense color and tight internal spaces.
The design conveys a classic, workmanlike toughness with a distinct old-style, poster-and-print personality. Its compact slabs and dense color suggest a utilitarian, heritage tone reminiscent of traditional signage and advertising. Overall it feels confident, no-nonsense, and a bit nostalgic without becoming delicate or ornate.
This font appears designed to deliver maximum impact in a condensed footprint, pairing sturdy slab serifs with a straightforward, print-forward construction. The emphasis is on bold presence, reliability, and a classic display tone that remains highly legible and visually cohesive.
The lowercase maintains clear differentiation and sturdy shapes (notably the single-storey a and g), supporting legibility at larger text sizes while keeping a strong display character. The sample text shows an assertive texture with minimal sparkle, favoring impact over lightness.
