A slanted slab-serif design with heavy, blocky strokes and compact, strongly bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a sheared construction that produces angled verticals and lively forward motion, while counters remain open and legible at display sizes. Terminals are mostly blunt and square-ended, with subtle notches/ink-trap-like cuts at joins that sharpen the silhouette. Spacing and rhythm feel sturdy and dense, giving text a dark, impactful texture.
Best suited for headlines and short-to-medium display text where its dark color and slanted stance add urgency and emphasis. It can also work for branding, packaging, and editorial pull quotes where a sturdy, retro-leaning slab-serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is confident and energetic, combining a pragmatic, workmanlike slab foundation with a sporty, headline-driven slant. It reads as retro-informed and punchy rather than delicate, suggesting impact and momentum.
The design appears intended to deliver a forceful slab-serif voice with built-in motion, combining solid, industrial forms with italicized energy for attention-grabbing display typography.
Capitals are broad and stable with pronounced slab feet, while the lowercase keeps the same angular slant and compact proportions for a cohesive texture in paragraphs. Numerals match the weight and stance, maintaining a consistent, poster-friendly presence.
