A heavy, extended slab serif with a strongly geometric build and squared, unbracketed terminals. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and many joins and corners are clipped or chamfered, giving the forms a machined, fabricated feel. Counters tend to be compact and often rectangular or rounded-rectangle, while the lowercase shows single-storey constructions (notably a and g) with broad, flat platforms. Numerals follow the same wide, blocky structure, and the overall rhythm reads as dense and emphatic with tight interior space.
Best suited to large-scale display settings where its mass and width can work as a graphic element—headlines, posters, signage, and bold branding. It can also add a rugged, retro-industrial flavor to packaging or product marks, especially when short words or compact lines are set with generous spacing.
The tone is bold and utilitarian, evoking industrial labeling, athletic lettering, and retro tech aesthetics. Its squared serifs and cut corners add a rugged, engineered character that feels confident and attention-seeking rather than delicate.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact with a sturdy slab-serif framework, using squared terminals and chamfered details to project a manufactured, high-energy voice. Its wide stance and compact counters prioritize presence and recognizability in display use.
Several letters emphasize horizontal slabs and squared shoulders, creating a strong baseline and headline presence. The angular notches and flattened curves can create a slightly stencil-like impression in places, while maintaining solid continuity of stroke and a consistent, mechanical texture across the set.
