A compact slab-serif with sturdy, rectangular serifs and a firm vertical rhythm. Strokes are mostly even with minimal modulation, and corners read crisp and squared-off, giving the design a constructed, workmanlike feel. Proportions are tall and tight, with short extenders and a fairly even color across text. Letterforms favor straight sides and flat terminals, while round letters (C, O, Q) keep a controlled, slightly squared impression; the numerals are bold and clear, built on the same rigid geometry.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks of copy where a compact, bold-structured texture is desirable. It fits packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from sturdy letterforms and crisp slab cues, and it can add a vintage-industrial flavor to editorial layouts and display typography.
The overall tone is pragmatic and assertive, with a hint of vintage printing and signage. Its compact build and blunt slab details convey reliability, clarity, and a slightly industrial, no-nonsense character.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, space-efficient slab-serif voice that stays legible while projecting firmness and utility. Its squared terminals and consistent stroke weight suggest a focus on dependable reproduction and a classic, workwear-inspired presence.
In text, the font holds a steady cadence with clear word shapes and strong verticals that help it stay structured at larger sizes. The slab detailing is prominent enough to read as decorative, but controlled enough to remain functional for dense settings.
