A sturdy slab-serif with pronounced, flat-ended serifs and confident vertical stems. Curves are broad and fairly circular (notably in C, O, and Q), while joins and terminals stay crisp and squared-off, giving a clean, engineered rhythm. Uppercase proportions feel traditional and balanced, with generous counters; lowercase forms are compact and readable with simple, upright construction. Numerals are clear and evenly weighted, with squared terminals that reinforce the font’s solid, structured texture.
It works well for editorial headlines, book and magazine typography, and brand applications that need a confident, heritage-leaning voice. The sturdy slabs and open counters also make it suitable for posters and short blocks of text where a firm, structured texture is desired.
The overall tone reads authoritative and dependable, with a slightly academic, editorial flavor. Its bold slab details lend a grounded, no-nonsense presence, while the open shapes keep it approachable rather than severe.
The font appears designed to deliver a strong, reliable slab-serif personality with crisp terminals and clear letterforms, balancing traditional proportions with a clean, modern finish for display and editorial use.
The design emphasizes strong horizontals in the serifs and a consistent, steady stroke presence, producing a dark, confident color in text. The lowercase shows straightforward forms (single-storey a and g) that keep the voice practical and contemporary within a classic slab framework.
