A heavy, blocky slab serif with broad proportions, compact counters, and strongly bracketed, rectangular serifs. Strokes are thick and assertive, with a mild-to-noticeable modulation that shows up in curved forms and joins, keeping the texture from feeling purely geometric. Terminals and slabs are squared-off with a slightly sculpted, cut-in look that creates sharp notches in letters like K, X, and Y. Uppercase forms are sturdy and relatively wide, while lowercase stays compact and weighty, producing a dense, poster-like color in text.
Best suited to display work where impact is the priority—headlines, posters, event flyers, packaging fronts, and branding marks that need a strong, vintage-leaning presence. It will also work for short pull quotes or labels, especially at larger sizes where the notches and bracketed slabs can read clearly.
The tone reads emphatic and old-timey, with a frontier/woodtype energy that feels loud, confident, and a bit rough-hewn. It suggests heritage signage and bold editorial display, leaning toward playful toughness rather than refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold slab-serif voice reminiscent of traditional display and woodtype-inspired lettering, combining sturdy structure with slightly carved details to create a distinctive, attention-grabbing silhouette.
In the sample text, the heavy weight and tight internal spaces make long passages feel dark and compact, while the strong slabs help maintain letter identity at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same chunky, squared construction, reinforcing a consistent, sign-painting-inspired rhythm across the set.
