A heavy, square-serif text face with flat, block-like slabs and a robust, even stroke weight. The curves are broad and rounded while joins and terminals stay crisp and rectangular, creating a clear, poster-like silhouette. Counters are relatively open for the weight, and the overall spacing feels firm and steady, supporting dense, dark typographic color at larger sizes.
This font performs best in headlines, posters, and display settings where its strong slabs and dense color can carry emphasis. It can also work for editorial pull quotes, branding, labels, and signage where a durable, straightforward serif is desired.
The tone is assertive and dependable, with a practical, no-nonsense presence that reads as industrial and slightly retro. Its blunt slabs and strong rhythm give it a confident voice suited to bold statements and straightforward messaging.
The design appears intended to combine the authority of a slab serif with simplified, square-ended details for maximum punch and clarity. It aims for a stable, high-impact look that remains legible and consistent in bold typographic applications.
Round letters like O and Q keep a smooth, substantial bowl, contrasted by the hard-edged slabs on verticals and horizontals. Numerals match the same sturdy construction, giving headings and short numeric strings a consistent, impactful texture.
