A sturdy slab-serif with low contrast and a largely even stroke color. The letters are notably wide with generous horizontal proportions, producing a calm, open rhythm in text. Serifs are block-like and flat ended, with squared terminals and occasional subtle notch/ink-trap-like cut-ins at joins that keep counters from clogging. Rounds (C, O, Q, e) are broadly drawn and slightly squared in feeling, while verticals and horizontals stay firm and rectilinear, giving the design a solid, engineered texture.
Best suited for headlines, pull quotes, posters, and branding that benefit from a bold, grounded slab-serif voice without moving into heavy weight. It can also work for short-to-medium editorial settings where a wide measure and a strong typographic texture are desirable.
The tone reads pragmatic and workmanlike, with a mild typewriter/editorial nostalgia. Its broad stance and chunky slabs feel dependable and institutional—more about clarity and presence than delicacy—while the squared detailing adds a faint industrial edge.
Likely designed to deliver a broad, confident slab-serif color with squared, functional detailing that holds up in reproduction. The wide proportions and firm terminals suggest an intention to be attention-getting and highly readable in display contexts while retaining a practical, no-nonsense character.
Uppercase forms feel especially expansive and stable, and the numerals match the same wide, slabbed construction for consistent display use. In the sample text, the generous width and open counters help maintain legibility at larger sizes, while the strong serifs create a distinct horizontal cadence across lines.
