A condensed slab serif with tall proportions, tight counters, and pronounced rectangular serifs. Strokes are sturdy and relatively even, with modest modulation that reads more as shaping than calligraphic contrast. Curves are compact and verticalized, while terminals and serifs finish with flat, squared-off cuts that reinforce a crisp, engineered texture. The overall rhythm is dense and vertical, producing strong word shapes and a compact line fit.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and brand marks where a strong condensed slab can maximize impact in limited horizontal space. It also works well for signage and short editorial callouts, where the dense vertical rhythm and squared serifs help maintain a bold, structured presence.
The font projects an assertive, workmanlike tone with a vintage-industrial flavor. Its narrow stance and heavy slabs give it a poster-ready presence that feels confident and slightly retro, suited to messaging that wants to look sturdy, no-nonsense, and attention-grabbing.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual weight and clarity in a compact width, combining sturdy slabs and square terminals to create a strong, economical typographic voice for display-forward applications.
The uppercase shows particularly tall, column-like forms, and the lowercase maintains similarly narrow proportions for a cohesive texture in mixed-case settings. Numerals follow the same condensed, slabbed construction, keeping signage-like consistency across text and display use.
