A sturdy slab-serif with heavy, rectangular serifs and generally even stroke weight. Letterforms are broad and grounded, with slightly softened corners and modest bracketing where strokes meet serifs, keeping the shapes firm but not overly rigid. Counters are open and simply drawn, and the spacing reads steady and workmanlike across mixed case and figures. The overall rhythm is consistent and solid, favoring clear silhouettes over delicate detail.
This style performs best where strong presence and quick recognition are needed, such as headlines, posters, packaging, and bold brand systems. It can also work for short editorial callouts, captions, and interface labels when a firm, traditional slab-serif voice is desired.
The font conveys a practical, no-nonsense tone with an industrial and editorial feel. Its weight and squared serifs project confidence and durability, suggesting signage, headlines, and functional typography rather than refinement. The result is assertive and dependable, with a classic print-era sturdiness.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose slab serif that prioritizes legibility and impact. Its restrained detailing and consistent weight suggest a pragmatic display and text companion for straightforward communication with a classic, sturdy character.
Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive, block-forward construction, with a particularly strong baseline presence from the slab feet on letters like n, m, and p. Numerals appear similarly robust and straightforward, matching the text color and texture of the alphabet for consistent set-in-text behavior.
