This typeface features heavy, square-ended slab serifs and firm vertical stress, with largely even stroke thickness across curves and stems. Serifs are blocky and unbracketed, giving corners a crisp, machined feel while maintaining rounded bowls on letters like O and Q. Proportions are compact with relatively tight counters and a solid, dense texture in text. Numerals and capitals read especially strong, with clear horizontal tops and bottoms that reinforce a stable baseline and cap line.
It performs best in display and short-to-medium text where a strong typographic presence is desired—such as headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, packaging, and brand wordmarks. The dense texture and emphatic serifs also suit editorial layouts that want a classic slab-serif voice with extra punch.
The overall tone is confident and no-nonsense, combining a traditional slab-serif seriousness with a slightly retro, print-driven presence. Its dark color and squared detailing suggest practicality and strength rather than delicacy, creating an assertive voice well suited to bold messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, high-impact slab-serif style with squared terminals and a consistent, print-friendly texture. It prioritizes solidity and legibility at larger sizes, aiming for a confident, workmanlike character that reads clearly and commands attention.
In the sample paragraph, the font maintains an even rhythm and a consistent, blocky silhouette; the sturdy serifs help keep words visually anchored and improve separation in dense settings. The heavier joins and compact apertures contribute to a pronounced “inked” look that feels at home in high-impact compositions.
