A very heavy serif with gently flared terminals and sturdy, block-like construction. Serifs are pronounced but smoothly integrated, with subtle bracketing that keeps joins rounded rather than abrupt. Curves are broad and full (notably in C, G, O, and S), and counters stay open enough to hold up at display sizes. The overall rhythm is dense and weighty, with slightly uneven character widths that add a traditional, typeset feel rather than a rigidly geometric one.
Best suited to short-to-medium text at larger sizes where its heavy color and flared serif detailing can be appreciated—headlines, posters, cover titling, and branding systems that need a traditional, assertive voice. It can also work for subheads and callouts in editorial layouts when paired with a lighter companion for body copy.
The tone is confident and old-school, with a poster-like solidity that reads as established and trustworthy. Its flared serif detailing adds a touch of warmth and tradition, giving headlines a classic, slightly vintage gravitas without becoming ornamental.
Designed to deliver maximum impact with a classic serif voice, combining thick, low-contrast strokes with flared, bracketed terminals for a confident, print-centric texture. The letterforms aim for strong presence and clear recognition in display settings rather than delicate refinement.
Uppercase forms feel especially monumental, while the lowercase maintains a strong presence with thick stems and compact internal spaces. Numerals are bold and highly legible, matching the letterforms’ sturdy, print-forward color.
