A heavy slab-serif with dense, rectangular forms and assertive, squared-off terminals. Serifs are thick and largely unbracketed to lightly bracketed, giving a stamped, built-up silhouette rather than a delicate book face. Counters are relatively tight and the joins feel sturdy, with a consistent, engineered rhythm across caps, lowercase, and numerals. The lowercase keeps a straightforward structure with chunky stems and a solid, even baseline presence, supporting legibility at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and signage where a strong, blocky presence is desirable. It can also work for editorial display elements—section openers, pull quotes, and short emphatic lines—where the heavy slabs add structure and authority.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, projecting strength and practicality with a slightly retro, letterpress-like flavor. It reads as workwear and utilitarian rather than refined, with an attention-grabbing weight that feels confident and direct.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a sturdy slab-serif voice, balancing straightforward construction with a compact, print-forward texture. It prioritizes bold recognition and a dependable, industrial character for display typography.
The overall color is very dark and uniform, so spacing and interior counters do much of the readability work. The numerals match the uppercase in heft, making figures feel integral to the design for headlines and price-driven messaging.
