A compact, angular serif with pronounced chamfered corners and an incised, beveled feel. Strokes are sturdy and mostly straight-sided, with short wedge-like serifs and frequent octagonal cut-ins at terminals and joins. Counters tend to be rectangular or polygonal rather than round, and curves (as in C, G, O) are faceted into multi-sided arcs. The overall rhythm is tight and vertical, with condensed capitals and sturdy numerals that read as cut from solid blocks.
Best suited to display work where its chamfered details and tight proportions can be appreciated—headlines, posters, packaging titles, and brand marks. It also fits signage and collegiate or team-style branding, and can add a formal, engraved flavor to short callouts or numerals at larger sizes.
The faceted construction and strong verticals convey a classic, institutional tone with a slightly ornamental edge. It suggests heritage and tradition while staying assertive and utilitarian, evoking signage, crests, and stamped or carved lettering.
The design appears intended to merge traditional serif structure with a carved, geometric treatment, prioritizing impact and a distinctive silhouette. Its repeated chamfers and faceted curves create a consistent decorative system that reads as sturdy, crafted, and emblematic.
Uppercase forms feel especially emblematic and plaque-like, while the lowercase retains the same chiseled logic with squared bowls and notched terminals. Numerals are similarly blocky and high-contrast in silhouette, making them stand out well in large settings.
