A sturdy slab-serif with heavy, square-ended serifs and largely monolinear strokes. The letterforms are compact and strongly constructed, with broad verticals, flat terminals, and minimal modulation, creating a dense, even typographic color. Counters are relatively tight and geometric, and the overall rhythm favors blocky silhouettes and crisp joins over calligraphic nuance. Figures share the same robust, squared-off construction for a consistent, poster-forward texture.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and display typography where a firm, high-impact voice is needed. It also fits signage and wayfinding, as well as branding and packaging that benefit from a rugged, dependable slab-serif impression.
The tone is solid and no-nonsense, with an industrial and institutional feel reminiscent of traditional campus, workwear, and signage typography. Its weighty slabs and squared terminals project confidence and durability, leaning more pragmatic than elegant.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, utilitarian slab-serif voice with clear, squared terminals and a stable baseline presence. Its construction prioritizes strong silhouettes and consistent stroke weight to hold up in attention-grabbing display contexts.
The design reads best when set with ample spacing or at sizes where the tight counters can stay clear, and it maintains a strong presence in both all-caps and mixed-case settings. The sample text shows a uniform, emphatic texture that favors impact and clarity over delicacy.
