A heavy, block-forward slab serif with pronounced bracketed serifs and sturdy vertical stress. Strokes are thick with clearly visible, moderate contrast and compact interior counters that keep the texture dense. Terminals tend toward squared, slightly softened edges, and joins create a subtle ink-trap-like pinch in tight corners that adds bite at display sizes. Overall spacing reads firm and deliberate, producing an assertive, poster-ready color on the page.
Best suited to display contexts such as headlines, posters, packaging, and signage where a dense, authoritative texture is desirable. It can also work for short editorial callouts or branded wordmarks that benefit from strong slab serifs and a sturdy, traditional presence.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, mixing an industrial sturdiness with a distinctly vintage, print-era authority. It suggests headlines, labels, and signage where impact matters more than delicacy, with a hint of old-style editorial gravitas.
Likely intended to deliver maximum presence with classic slab-serif cues—wide, supportive serifs and compact counters—while retaining enough contrast and shaping to feel crafted rather than purely geometric.
In running sample text the font maintains a consistent, dark rhythm with strong word shapes and emphatic punctuation. The figures and capitals feel particularly weighty and stable, reinforcing a grounded, utilitarian voice.
