A heavy, chunky slab-serif with broad proportions and compact counters. Strokes are largely uniform, with subtle shaping and slightly bracketed joins into the slabs that soften the otherwise block-like silhouettes. Curves are full and rounded (notably in O/C/G and the numerals), while terminals and serifs stay blunt and rectangular, producing a strong horizontal emphasis. The overall color is dense and steady, with tight interior space and clear, simple letterforms that prioritize impact over delicacy.
Best suited to headlines, poster typography, and brand marks where a dense, attention-grabbing voice is needed. It also fits packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from sturdy, high-impact letterforms and a classic slab-serif flavor.
The tone feels bold, straightforward, and slightly retro, like classic posters, workwear labels, or collegiate signage. Its sturdy slabs and inflated curves give it an approachable toughness—assertive without feeling sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual authority with a friendly, vintage-leaning slab-serif character. It balances blocky structure with rounded curves to stay readable and personable while still projecting strength and solidity.
In text, the strong serifs and large, rounded forms create a pronounced rhythm and a dark typographic texture. Spacing appears built for display sizes, where the generous shapes and compact counters read cleanly and maintain a consistent, heavyweight presence.
