A sturdy, block-built slab serif with wide proportions and a squared, octagonal construction. Strokes are heavy and consistent, with flat, square-ended terminals and prominent slab-like feet that read as structural rather than decorative. Corners are frequently chamfered, giving many bowls and counters an angular, cut-corner feel, while rounds are largely suppressed into faceted curves. Spacing and rhythm feel compact and dense, producing a strong, poster-ready texture in words and lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and bold labels where strong shapes and a compact, punchy texture are desirable. It also fits sports and collegiate branding, industrial or heritage packaging, and straightforward signage where legibility and impact matter more than refinement.
The overall tone is industrial and no-nonsense, with a classic varsity/workwear flavor. Its faceted geometry and hard edges suggest machinery, signage, and stamped lettering, conveying confidence and toughness more than elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver a tough, engineered slab-serif voice with chamfered geometry that holds up in bold settings. Its wide stance and faceted forms prioritize presence and a branded, uniform look across letters and figures.
The lowercase follows the same squared logic, keeping a consistent, engineered look across cases, and the numerals share the same octagonal silhouette, reinforcing a uniform, system-like palette. The face maintains a steady, emphatic color in paragraphs, though its angular details make it most distinctive at medium-to-large sizes.
