A heavy slab serif with broad proportions, generous counters, and strongly bracketed, rectangular serifs. Strokes are thick and steady with noticeable contrast and subtle rounding at joins, giving the shapes a slightly softened, inked feel. The forms are compact and sturdy rather than delicate, with clear, open apertures and a sturdy baseline rhythm; curves (O, C, G) stay full and weighty, and terminals tend to finish in blunt slabs rather than sharp points.
Best suited to display roles where weight and presence matter—headlines, posters, labels, and storefront-style signage. It can work for short subheads or pull quotes, but longer passages will read very dark unless given ample size and leading.
The overall tone is bold and workmanlike, evoking traditional print ephemera such as posters, packaging, and signage. Its chunky slabs and softened corners add a friendly, vintage character while still feeling assertive and authoritative.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a sturdy slab-serif voice, pairing high visual weight with approachable, slightly softened detailing. The wide stance and bracketed serifs suggest an intention to echo classic wood-type and industrial print aesthetics while staying clear and readable.
At text sizes the strong serifs and heavy stems create a dense, high-impact texture, while the open counters help maintain legibility. Figures are similarly hefty and block-oriented, matching the letterforms for consistent typographic color across mixed alphanumeric settings.
