A robust slab-serif with heavy, squared-off serifs and strongly weighted strokes that produce a dense, authoritative texture. Letterforms are generally wide with a steady, upright stance and clear vertical stress. Serifs read as mostly flat and substantial, with slight bracketing in places that softens the joins without losing the blocky, engineered feel. Counters are compact and the overall rhythm is even, yielding a firm, poster-friendly presence while remaining structured enough for text settings.
Well-suited to headlines and short text where weight and presence are important, such as posters, book covers, packaging fronts, and brand marks that need a sturdy serif voice. It can also work for editorial display typography—subheads, pull quotes, and section titles—where a dense, authoritative color helps establish hierarchy.
The tone is confident and traditional, blending old-style print authority with a no-nonsense, workmanlike solidity. It suggests editorial credibility and campus/athletic messaging, with a straightforward voice that feels dependable rather than delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold slab-serif voice with strong readability and a compact, impactful color. Its wide proportions and substantial serifs prioritize clarity at display sizes while retaining conventional letterform construction for familiar, dependable reading.
Round letters like O and C maintain broad proportions, while diagonals in V, W, X, and Y stay sturdy and avoid hairline-like thinning. Numerals appear heavy and stable, matching the uppercase for signage-like clarity. The lowercase keeps a familiar, readable skeleton with a strong baseline and prominent slab finishing on stems.
