A crisp, square-serif design with predominantly uniform stroke weight and flat, rectangular slab terminals. Curves are restrained and often squared-off at the joins, giving letters a slightly boxy, engineered feel (notably in C, G, O, and the lowercase bowls). The serifs are short and sturdy with clean right-angle corners, while counters remain open and clear in text. Proportions are moderately compact with a steady rhythm; lowercase forms such as a, e, and g show simplified, constructed shapes that emphasize straight segments over continuous rounds. Numerals follow the same squared construction, with clear, sturdy forms intended to hold up at larger sizes.
Works well for headlines, posters, and branding where a technical or industrial character is desired, and for signage or packaging that benefits from sturdy, squared letterforms. It can also serve in editorial pull quotes or short blocks of text when a constructed, retro-utility tone fits the layout, especially at medium to larger sizes where the squared details read cleanly.
The overall tone is utilitarian and industrial, with a vintage technical flavor reminiscent of labeling, equipment plates, and pragmatic print work. Its squared details and firm terminals project a confident, matter-of-fact voice—more functional and mechanical than elegant or calligraphic. In longer text it reads steady and structured, while in headlines it becomes assertive and graphic.
This font appears designed to merge slab-serif solidity with a square, constructed drawing approach, prioritizing crisp terminals, consistent stroke logic, and a mechanical rhythm. The intention seems to be a practical, display-friendly face that remains readable while delivering a distinctive industrial voice.
The design leans on right angles and flattened curves, producing a distinctive “machined” texture across words. Uppercase and lowercase share consistent terminal logic, which helps mixed-case settings feel cohesive. The sample text suggests strong letter separation and stable color on the line, with the square serifs adding a subtle grid-like cadence.
