A robust slab-serif with squared, blocky serifs and a generally low-contrast stroke system. Letterforms lean on firm verticals and broad joins, with subtly rounded outside curves that keep the texture from feeling overly mechanical. The serifs read as thick and supportive, often with slight bracketing, and terminals stay mostly flat and decisive. Uppercase proportions are steady and imposing, while the lowercase maintains a practical, readable rhythm with compact counters and a workmanlike finish; the numerals follow the same sturdy, sign-like construction.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks of copy where a strong typographic presence is needed. It can anchor editorial layouts, packaging, and brand wordmarks that benefit from a sturdy slab-serif voice and clear character differentiation.
The overall tone is solid and no-nonsense, combining a traditional slab authority with a mildly retro, newspaper-and-posters flavor. It feels dependable and legible rather than delicate, projecting confidence and practicality in larger settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, dependable slab-serif texture with straightforward construction and assertive serifs, prioritizing impact and readability in display and editorial contexts.
In text, the heavy serifs create a pronounced horizontal cadence and a dark, even color that holds together well at display sizes. The shapes favor clarity over refinement, with a slightly condensed, utilitarian impression and consistent, emphatic finishing throughout.
