A sturdy slab serif with bracketed, rectangular serifs and a calm, even rhythm. Strokes stay largely uniform with only gentle modulation, producing a clear, printed texture in both caps and lowercase. Proportions are traditional with generous counters; round letters are open and smooth, while verticals read straight and stable. Details like the two-storey “a” and “g,” the compact ear on “g,” and the short, firm terminals give it a composed, text-friendly voice, and the numerals match the same measured, bookish construction.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, reports, and editorial layouts where a stable, readable slab serif is desired. It can also serve for headlines and subheads that need a traditional, authoritative tone without high-contrast delicacy.
The overall tone is traditional and dependable, with an editorial seriousness that feels at home in books, institutions, and formal communication. Its slab serifs add a subtle sense of authority and permanence without becoming decorative.
The design intent appears to be a practical slab serif for everyday typesetting—prioritizing clarity, steady texture, and consistent serif construction across cases and numerals. It aims to provide a classic, reliable voice for content-forward typography rather than stylistic display.
Spacing appears balanced and consistent across the alphabet, and the serif shapes remain disciplined from capitals through figures, supporting a cohesive typographic color. The punctuation and figures in the sample text reinforce a straightforward, workmanlike personality suited to continuous reading.
