A heavy, wide slab serif with pronounced stroke contrast and stout, bracketed serifs that read as sturdy blocks at the terminals. Curves are full and rounded, while joins are tight, producing slight notch-like impressions where strokes meet (notably in bowls and at some serif junctions). Counters are moderately open for the weight, and the overall color is dense and emphatic. Numerals are similarly robust and wide, with strong vertical stress and clear slabbed endings that keep them aligned with the text rhythm.
Best suited for display applications where impact is the priority: headlines, posters, editorial titles, and bold branding. It can work for short bursts of text such as pull quotes or labels, especially where a rugged, print-forward slab serif feel is desired.
The tone is bold and declarative, with an industrial, old-style poster sensibility. Its weight and slab structure convey toughness and authority, while the rounded bowls and subtle notches add a touch of vintage print character.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual presence with a classic slab-serif framework, combining wide proportions and strong contrast to achieve a punchy, poster-ready look that remains structured and readable.
Spacing appears generous enough to prevent the heavy shapes from clogging at display sizes, but the dense strokes and deep slabs create a very dark typographic texture in paragraphs. The design maintains consistent serif treatment across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, supporting a unified, headline-forward voice.
