A heavy, block-built slab serif with squared curves, tight counters, and a strongly rectilinear skeleton. Strokes are mostly uniform with subtle modulation, and terminals finish in assertive slab-like feet and caps. Corners are slightly eased rather than razor sharp, giving the shapes a machined, sign-painter solidity. Proportions run broad with sturdy horizontals; the lowercase is compact and sturdy, with single-storey forms and deep notches that keep interiors open at display sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same squared, engineered rhythm for a consistent, impact-forward texture.
Best suited to display typography where weight and presence are desirable: posters, headlines, branding marks, labels, and signage. It can also work for short UI headings or badges where a sturdy, vintage-industrial feel is needed, but it is likely to perform strongest in larger sizes rather than long text blocks.
The overall tone is bold, industrial, and a bit frontier-inspired—confident lettering that reads like it belongs on painted signage, workwear branding, or sports and team graphics. Its chunky slabs and squared contours project strength and practicality, leaning toward a retro, no-nonsense voice rather than elegance or delicacy.
The letterforms appear designed to maximize impact and legibility in attention-grabbing contexts, using broad proportions, slab-like terminals, and squared geometry to create a rugged, sign-inspired aesthetic.
The design emphasizes strong silhouettes over fine detail, with interior cut-ins and squared bowls that help differentiate letters in short headlines. At smaller sizes the tight apertures and compact counters may feel dense, but at larger settings the crisp, blocky rhythm becomes a defining character.
