A heavy, square-serif text face with robust, mostly even stroke weight and blunt slab serifs that read as crisp, rectangular terminals. Letterforms are wide and stable with generous interior counters, a low-contrast construction, and a compact, strongly horizontal rhythm. Curves (C, G, O, S) are broadly rounded but finish with squared joins, while verticals and serifs keep edges sharp and authoritative. Lowercase is solid and straightforward with a single-storey a and g, a flat-topped t, and short, firm serifs that reinforce a sturdy baseline.
Best suited to display roles where strong presence is needed: headlines, poster typography, logotypes, packaging labels, and wayfinding or storefront-style signage. It can work for short blocks of text at larger sizes, especially when a dense, confident editorial texture is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and workmanlike, evoking classic signage, editorial headlines, and heritage American slab-serif energy. Its weight and squared detailing give it a no-nonsense, dependable feel that can also read as nostalgic or collegiate depending on setting.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a straightforward, squared slab-serif construction—prioritizing legibility at display sizes and a bold, heritage-informed texture that holds up in print and graphic applications.
The numerals match the same blocky, slab-serif vocabulary, with prominent weight and open shapes for quick recognition. Spacing in the samples feels built for strong, dark text color and impactful word shapes rather than delicate typography.
