A heavy, block-constructed slab serif with crisp, planar strokes and prominent square serifs. Corners are frequently chamfered into octagonal facets, giving many curves a cut, machined feel rather than a fully round contour. Proportions are fairly compact with wide, stable capitals and lowercase forms that maintain a consistent, sturdy rhythm; counters tend to be rectangular and tightly shaped. The numerals and round letters (like O and 0) read as squared-off rings, reinforcing the geometric, sign-like construction.
Best suited for headlines, display typography, and short blocks of text where impact and clarity are prioritized. It works well for posters, signage, badges, packaging, and logo wordmarks that benefit from a sturdy, traditional voice and a distinctly cut, geometric texture.
The overall tone is collegiate and industrial, with a vintage poster sensibility and a no-nonsense, workmanlike presence. Its faceted corners add a crafted, stamped quality that feels traditional and authoritative rather than sleek or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust slab-serif voice with a recognizable faceted geometry, combining traditional serif authority with a more engineered, octagonal construction. It aims for strong readability and high presence in display contexts while keeping letterforms consistent and compact.
The strong slab serifs and dense internal spacing create a dark typographic color in text, especially at larger sizes. The faceting is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures, helping headings look uniform and intentional even in mixed-case settings.
