A tall, condensed slab serif with heavy, consistent stroke weight and crisp, unbracketed terminals. Serifs are squared-off and prominent, giving the letters a blocky silhouette and a strong vertical rhythm. Counters are relatively tight, apertures are narrow, and curves are simplified to maintain a compact, high-impact texture. The design reads as sturdy and mechanical, with a deliberate emphasis on straight stems, flat tops, and decisive corners.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, event promotions, and signage where the condensed width helps fit more characters per line without losing presence. It can also work for badges, labels, and packaging that benefit from a rugged, vintage display voice.
The tone is bold and declarative, with a distinctly vintage display feel that recalls wood type and utilitarian signage. Its narrow, emphatic shapes create a sense of urgency and confidence, suited to attention-grabbing headlines and statement typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint, combining heavy slabs and condensed proportions to create a strong, attention-forward display texture reminiscent of classic advertising and sign lettering.
The uppercase forms dominate with strong verticality, while the lowercase and numerals follow the same condensed, squared construction for a consistent color across lines. In longer samples the dense spacing and heavy weight produce a dark, poster-like typographic mass, making it most effective at larger sizes or with generous tracking.
