A sturdy slab-serif with heavy vertical emphasis and compact internal counters. Serifs are broad and strongly rectangular, often with slight bracketing that helps joins feel reinforced rather than sharp. Curves are full but tightly controlled (notably in round letters and numerals), creating a dense, punchy texture in text. Stroke contrast is pronounced for a slab style, with thick stems paired with notably slimmer connecting strokes, and terminals that resolve in flat, squared forms.
Performs best in display contexts where strong slabs and dense color are an advantage: headlines, posters, and book covers. It can also suit editorial subheads and packaging where a classic, sturdy serif presence is needed and tight, impactful lines are desirable.
The overall tone is assertive and traditional, blending a workmanlike, industrial feel with a bookish, old-style authority. It reads as confident and formal without becoming delicate, making it feel dependable and slightly historic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence and legibility through reinforced slabs, compact proportions, and a controlled, high-impact rhythm. It aims for a classic serif voice adapted for bold, attention-grabbing typography.
Capitals sit broad and steady with strong horizontals, while lowercase maintains a robust, compact rhythm that keeps lines visually solid. Numerals follow the same weighty, squared-off logic, supporting a consistent, utilitarian voice across alphanumerics.
