A sturdy slab-serif with clearly bracketed, rectangular serifs and a calm, even stroke rhythm. Letterforms are upright and straightforward, with moderate proportions and open counters that keep paragraphs readable. Curves are smooth and round (notably in C, O, and G), while joins and terminals stay crisp and decisive. The lowercase shows a familiar, workmanlike build with a two-storey a and g, a compact ear on g, and a simple, vertical t with a firm crossbar; figures align with the same restrained, even texture.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts, where the slab serifs help maintain line tracking and a steady texture. It also works effectively for reports, essays, and interface or document typography that benefits from a grounded, traditional tone.
The overall tone is practical and established, leaning toward a classic editorial and academic feel. Its slab serifs add a sense of authority and stability without becoming overly decorative, giving text a dependable, institutional voice.
The design appears intended as a dependable slab-serif for everyday typesetting—prioritizing clarity, consistency, and a solid page color over stylistic novelty. It aims to deliver a familiar serif voice that holds up in paragraphs while remaining confident in headings.
Capitals read cleanly at display sizes, while the sample paragraph shows consistent color and comfortable spacing in continuous text. The numerals are clear and conventional, matching the serif structure and maintaining legibility in running content.
