A compact, heavy slab-serif with squared-off terminals and firm, rectangular serifs that give the letters a stamped, block-built feel. Strokes read largely even in weight, with occasional thickened joins and slightly softened corners that keep the texture from feeling brittle. Proportions are condensed with tight apertures and a strong vertical emphasis, while the lowercase shows a large x-height and short extenders for dense, efficient setting. The overall rhythm is chunky and steady, producing a dark, even color in words and lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, posters, signage, and packaging where strong presence and condensed economy are useful. It also works well for labels, badges, and short bursts of copy that benefit from a rugged slab-serif voice rather than delicate readability.
The tone is assertive and assertively practical—evoking workwear labeling, old storefront lettering, and headline typography meant to grab attention fast. Its slabbed geometry and compact width add a rugged, no-nonsense character with a hint of vintage American display tradition.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact in a tight horizontal footprint, combining bold slab serifs with squared terminals to create a durable, attention-forward display texture. It prioritizes strong silhouette and consistent density for graphic applications and compact titling.
Counters stay relatively small and enclosed (notably in rounded letters), which increases weight and impact but can reduce openness at smaller sizes. Numerals and capitals match the same squared, heavyweight construction, helping mixed-case and alphanumeric settings feel consistent and poster-ready.
