A heavy, block-forward slab serif with squared, unbracketed terminals and a compact, poster-like silhouette. Strokes are thick and even, with large rectangular serifs that read as integral blocks rather than delicate finishing details. Counters tend to be rounded but tight, and the overall rhythm is dense, with short extenders and a strong baseline presence. The lowercase follows the same chunky construction, with single-storey forms and prominent feet and caps that reinforce a monolithic texture in lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short bursts of text where impact matters more than delicacy. It works well for poster graphics, bold packaging labels, storefront or event signage, and logo marks that need a sturdy, stamp-like presence. For body copy, it will be most comfortable at larger sizes with generous spacing to avoid an overly dark texture.
The tone is bold and declarative, with a nostalgic flavor reminiscent of display lettering used for headlines, posters, and signage. Its squared slabs and compressed interior spaces give it a confident, no-nonsense voice that feels rugged and slightly playful at larger sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with simple, square-joined slabs and a compact, uniform stroke system, producing a strong, easily recognizable display voice. The consistent block construction suggests a focus on clarity at distance and a classic, heritage-inspired headline feel.
In the sample text, the font builds dark, continuous bands across lines, making it highly attention-grabbing but visually dense. The numerals share the same blocky construction, pairing well with the uppercase for short, emphatic settings like prices, dates, or scores.
