A heavy, compact slab-serif design with broad, mostly geometric forms and softened corners. Strokes are solid and weighty, then visually “relieved” by a thin inline cut that tracks the contours, creating a carved, dimensional effect and crisp interior counters. Curves are generous and round (notably in C, O, S, and the bowls of b/p), while terminals and serifs read as blocky slabs with slightly eased edges. Lowercase has a straightforward, sturdy construction with simple, open apertures and a single-storey a; figures are similarly bold and rounded, keeping a consistent, poster-ready texture across the set.
Best for large-format display work such as posters, headlines, logotypes, and packaging where the inline detail can be appreciated. It also suits event and promotional graphics, labels, and merchandise applications that benefit from a bold, vintage-leaning presence.
The inline carving and chunky slabs give a classic sign-painting and display-poster energy, leaning toward mid‑century and fairground aesthetics. It feels upbeat and attention-seeking, with a sporty, headline-forward confidence suited to loud, celebratory messages rather than quiet reading.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a carved inline accent that adds dimensionality and visual flair. The sturdy slab structure and rounded geometry suggest an intention toward classic signage and poster typography, optimized for bold statements and branding.
The inline is consistently inset and narrow, functioning like a highlight that adds depth without turning the letters delicate. Spacing and letter shapes favor blocky silhouettes and strong word shapes, with smooth curvature and sturdy joins that keep the design readable at large sizes.
