A heavy slab-serif with broad proportions and a compact, tightly set rhythm. Strokes are strongly weighted with noticeable contrast between main stems and the slab terminals, and the serifs read as thick, mostly squared forms with subtle bracketing. Counters are relatively small for the weight, contributing to a dense, ink-rich color on the page. Round letters are full and sturdy, while joins and interior corners stay crisp, giving the design a firm, engineered feel across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display work where weight and presence are an advantage: headlines, posters, signage, and bold packaging. Its dense texture and strong slabs also make it a natural fit for editorial decks, pull quotes, and branding that needs a sturdy, retro-industrial flavor.
The overall tone is confident and forceful, with a utilitarian, workmanlike character that nods to vintage print and display typography. It feels stable and authoritative rather than delicate, projecting a straightforward, no-nonsense voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact and solidity while retaining the structured clarity of a slab-serif. Its wide stance, thick terminals, and compact counters prioritize prominence and legibility at larger sizes, echoing classic print and sign typography.
The texture in running text is dark and cohesive, with strong word shapes driven by prominent slabs and compact apertures. Numerals match the heavy, squared-off language and maintain clear, punchy silhouettes suited to attention-grabbing settings.
