A robust serif with broad proportions and sculpted, flaring terminals that widen as strokes meet the serifs. The texture is dense and authoritative, with relatively even stroke modulation and distinctly bracketed joins that soften the shapes. Counters are compact in the heavier letters (B, P, R) while round forms (O, Q, C) stay smooth and open enough to keep the rhythm readable. The lowercase is sturdy and compact, with a two-storey “g” and strong, squared-off shoulders in “n/m,” and the numerals match the weight with broad, stable silhouettes.
Best suited for headlines, covers, and display typography where its mass and flared serifs can carry personality at larger sizes. It can also work for short editorial elements such as deck copy, pull quotes, and section openers where a traditional, authoritative voice is desired.
The overall tone is confident and traditional, leaning toward a classic editorial or heritage feel rather than a minimalist contemporary one. Its heavy presence and flared detailing add a slightly dramatic, old-style warmth that reads as established and authoritative.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, heritage-leaning serif voice with softened bracketed structure and flaring terminals, balancing classic bookish cues with high-impact display presence.
Serifs and stroke endings consistently show a wedge-like flare, giving corners a carved, ink-trap-free solidity. In text, the weight produces a strong headline color and clear word shapes, while the wide set contributes to a spacious, monumental cadence.
