A robust serif with strongly bracketed wedge serifs and an emphatic, high-contrast build. Curves are generous and round (notably in C, O, S), while verticals carry most of the visual weight, giving the face a steady, print-forward rhythm. Terminals are crisp and slightly flared, counters are moderately open, and joins stay smooth rather than sharp. Proportions lean broad and sturdy, with a conventional text-like skeleton and a confident, slightly compressed texture when set in paragraphs.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks of editorial copy where a strong, classic serif voice is desired. It can add weight and gravitas to book covers, posters, and heritage-leaning packaging, and it performs especially well when you want a traditional serif look with substantial impact.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a classic bookish presence amplified by its heavy, headline-ready color. It reads as dependable and institutional—suggesting established publishing, formal communications, and heritage branding rather than minimal or experimental design.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading experience with heightened presence—retaining familiar text-serif structures while increasing visual authority for display and titling use.
Uppercase forms feel stately and stable, with clear differentiation between similar shapes (I/J, O/Q) and a conventional, readable figure set. The lowercase keeps a familiar text-serif grammar with pronounced serif cues and rounded bowls, producing a dense, emphatic page tone at display sizes.
