A sturdy slab-serif with broad, confident strokes and minimal contrast, featuring pronounced, mostly rectangular serifs that read as slightly bracketed rather than razor-sharp. The forms are open and legible with generous counters and a steady, even rhythm across text. Round letters are smoothly drawn but remain grounded by firm terminals; diagonals (like in A, V, W, Y) feel stable and not overly acute. Lowercase proportions look conventional, with a clear, readable a and e, and numerals that match the same solid, workmanlike construction.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, books, and long-form articles where steady readability is important. It also works effectively for headlines, subheads, and pull quotes that benefit from a firm, traditional voice, and for reports or institutional materials that aim for clarity and credibility.
The font conveys a traditional, bookish tone with an editorial seriousness. Its strong slabs and calm, even color suggest reliability and authority, while the rounded curves keep it approachable rather than severe.
The design appears aimed at a dependable, print-oriented slab serif that balances sturdy construction with comfortable readability. It emphasizes consistent texture and strong terminals to provide authority in display while remaining practical for text.
In paragraph settings the texture stays consistent, with clear word shapes and comfortable spacing that supports continuous reading. The bold presence of the serifs gives headlines a grounded, print-forward feel without becoming decorative.
