A heavy, block-forward slab serif with square-cut terminals and thick, even strokes that keep contrast minimal. The serifs read as flat, rectangular feet and caps with mostly unbracketed joins, giving letters a punched, poster-like solidity. Counters are moderately open for the weight, curves are broadly rounded, and the overall rhythm is compact with dense color and strong vertical emphasis. The lowercase shows simple, sturdy forms with short-to-moderate extenders, while figures are bold and tightly built to match the headline tone.
Best suited to headlines and display settings where impact is the priority—posters, storefront-style signage, bold packaging, and logo wordmarks. It can also work for short subheads or pull quotes, especially when you want a compact, high-ink look that stays clear at a glance.
The font projects a confident, no-nonsense personality with a warm retro flavor. Its chunky slabs and compact proportions feel reminiscent of traditional display lettering used for signage and advertising, balancing toughness with approachability.
The design appears aimed at delivering a strong, instantly legible slab-serif voice with a distinctly blocky, vintage-leaning feel. Its simplified geometry and square terminals prioritize bold presence and consistent texture over delicate detail.
At text sizes the weight creates strong presence and reduced internal space, so spacing and line length will noticeably affect readability. The squared-off details and consistent stroke thickness help it hold up visually in short bursts of copy and bold typographic statements.
