A compact, heavy slab serif with a strongly geometric, cut-corner construction. Strokes are consistently thick with square, unbracketed slab terminals and a mostly rectangular silhouette, while many corners are chamfered to create an octagonal, poster-like rhythm. Counters are tight and angular, and the joins and horizontals feel sturdy and engineered rather than calligraphic. Uppercase forms are broad-shouldered and emphatic; lowercase maintains a sturdy, simplified structure with single-storey a and g, and digits follow the same squared, notched logic for a cohesive texture.
This face suits headlines, posters, and logo wordmarks where a compact, high-impact presence is needed. It also works well for signage, labels, and packaging that benefit from a rugged, heritage-inspired slab serif with strong legibility at display sizes.
The overall tone is bold and workmanlike, evoking classic western signage, varsity lettering, and industrial labels. Its crisp corners and dense color give it a confident, no-nonsense voice that reads as vintage yet pragmatic.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a condensed footprint, using square slabs and chamfered geometry to reference traditional display lettering. Its consistent, engineered shapes suggest a focus on bold branding and attention-grabbing titling rather than long-form reading.
The pronounced slab terminals and chamfered corners create a distinctive stencil-free “cut” feel that stays consistent from letters through numerals and punctuation in the sample. The dense spacing and compact proportions produce a strong typographic block, especially in all-caps settings.
