A solid slab-serif design with heavy, rectangular serifs and mostly uniform stroke weight. The shapes are straightforward and firmly constructed, with broad shoulders and generously open counters that keep the texture readable in dense settings. Curves are smooth and round (notably in O/Q and the lowercase bowls), while joins and terminals stay blunt and stable. Spacing reads slightly compact, producing a dark, even typographic color in paragraph text.
Well-suited to headlines and subheads where a strong, stable presence is needed, and it also holds up in short-to-medium text blocks thanks to open counters and even stroke modulation. It can work effectively for editorial layouts, labels and packaging, and straightforward signage where clarity and firmness are priorities.
The overall tone is workmanlike and dependable, with an industrial, no-nonsense character. Its weight and slab structure add authority, while the rounded bowls and uncomplicated forms keep it approachable rather than severe.
The design appears intended as a versatile, everyday slab serif: sturdy and legible, with enough weight and serif mass to stand out in display use while remaining orderly and consistent for functional typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, sturdy rhythm, and the numerals match the same blocky, grounded construction. The Q’s tail and the robust serifs provide clear letter differentiation, supporting quick scanning in headlines and text alike.
