A heavy, square-shouldered slab serif with blunt, rectangular serifs and predominantly straight-sided bowls and counters. Strokes keep a steady, monoline-like weight with crisp right-angle joins, creating a boxy, engineered rhythm across capitals and lowercase. Curves are minimized into faceted shapes (notably in C/G/S and the rounded letters), while the numerals follow the same squared construction for a tightly unified texture. Overall spacing reads moderately open for the weight, helping the dense forms stay legible in display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where a firm, high-impact voice is needed. It performs especially well for sports and athletic identities, industrial or heritage-themed packaging, and bold signage where squared forms and slab details reinforce a rugged, constructed look.
The tone is assertive and utilitarian, with a distinctly retro, industrial feel. Its squared geometry suggests machinery, signage, and team identity—confident, no-nonsense, and slightly playful in a pixel-adjacent way without becoming a true bitmap.
Likely intended as a display slab serif that emphasizes geometric, square construction for maximum visual impact. The consistent stroke weight and blunt slab detailing aim to deliver a strong, durable presence while maintaining straightforward readability at larger sizes.
The design leans on consistent rectangular terminals and slab accents, producing a strong baseline and cap-line presence. The squareness of internal counters gives words a compact, modular color that can feel commanding in short phrases but visually insistent in long paragraphs.
