A heavy, slab-serif design with pronounced, blocky serifs and mostly squared terminals. Strokes are consistently robust, with tight interior counters and compact apertures that create a dense texture in text. Uppercase forms read sturdy and geometric, while the lowercase keeps a utilitarian, workmanlike rhythm with strong verticals and short, blunt serifs. Numerals match the weight and presence, maintaining a firm, poster-ready silhouette.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and branding where a firm, traditional presence is desired. It also fits packaging and signage that benefit from bold, stable letterforms and clear slab-serif cues.
The overall tone is assertive and no-nonsense, with a classic print feel that recalls editorial headlines and traditional signage. Its dense color and sturdy detailing give it a dependable, authoritative voice with a hint of retro, collegiate familiarity.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum solidity and readability at larger sizes, pairing strong slab serifs with compact, economical shapes for a decisive, print-forward voice.
At display sizes the chunky serifs and tight counters create strong impact; in longer text, the heavy color and compact openings can make word shapes feel dense, especially in areas with repeated vertical strokes.
