Keywords: headlines, editorial, posters, branding, signage, sturdy, confident, traditional, workmanlike, clarity, durability, impact, versatility, slab serif, bracketed, low contrast, chunky, rounded terminals.
A sturdy slab serif with broad proportions, heavy verticals, and clearly bracketed rectangular serifs. Stroke contrast stays modest, with a mostly even, robust rhythm that reads solid rather than delicate. Curves are full and generous (notably in O/C/G), and joins feel smooth, with slightly rounded corners and softened terminals that keep the weight from looking brittle. Lowercase forms are compact and steady with a straightforward two-storey a and g, and figures match the same chunky, stable construction.
Well-suited to headlines and subheads where you want a strong, readable slab-serif voice, as well as editorial layouts that benefit from a firm typographic anchor. It can also work for posters, packaging, and signage where bold letterforms and clear serif cues help maintain legibility at a distance.
The overall tone is dependable and confident, with a traditional, print-forward presence. It feels practical and grounded—more institutional and editorial than playful—while the softened details add a hint of warmth.
Likely intended as a versatile, no-nonsense slab serif that delivers impact and clarity across common display and text-adjacent settings, balancing sturdy structure with slightly softened detailing for a friendly, contemporary edge.
Spacing appears comfortable and the letterforms hold together well at display sizes, giving headings a dense, authoritative color. The broad stance and substantial serifs emphasize horizontality and create a strong baseline presence.
