A very heavy slab-serif with wide, sturdy proportions and a compact rhythm. Strokes show noticeable contrast, with thick verticals and slightly lighter joins, and the serifs are bold and bracketed, giving corners a softened, sculpted feel rather than razor-sharp terminals. Counters are relatively tight and the overall color is dense, with rounded curves on letters like C, G, and O balancing the squared-off slabs. The lowercase is sturdy and readable, with short, strong extenders and a generally upright, steady construction.
This font is well-suited to headlines, posters, and large-format typography where a dense, confident slab voice is needed. It can also work effectively for bold logo wordmarks, packaging, and sports or event branding that benefits from a sturdy, classic-meets-punchy presence.
The tone is forceful and assured, pairing a classic, old-school slab presence with a modern, high-impact weight. It feels industrial and headline-driven, suggesting tradition and authority while staying energetic and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a traditional slab-serif structure, combining bold bracketed serifs and controlled contrast to create a strong, legible display texture. Its wide stance and compact counters prioritize presence and authority over delicate detail.
The heavy slabs and tight internal spaces create strong silhouette recognition at display sizes, while the softened brackets help prevent the letterforms from feeling overly rigid. Numerals are equally bold and built for emphasis, matching the alphabet’s dense typographic color.
