A compact slab-serif with sturdy, bracketed serifs and a clearly defined vertical axis. Strokes feel firm and consistent with moderate contrast, producing a crisp rhythm that stays legible in dense settings. The proportions are relatively narrow with tight sidebearings, and the letterforms show traditional serif construction—two‑storey a and g, a pronounced ear on g, and a straight, no‑nonsense set of capitals. Numerals align cleanly with the text color and maintain the same robust slab logic.
Well suited to editorial typography—magazines, newspapers, and long-form reading—where a compact serif can fit more characters per line while maintaining a solid text color. It also works for reports, academic materials, and branding systems that need a traditional, dependable voice across headlines and body copy.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, projecting authority without feeling ornate. Its compact width and sturdy serifs give it a pragmatic, workmanlike confidence that reads as familiar and trustworthy on the page.
Likely designed to provide a robust, space-efficient serif for text-heavy layouts, combining traditional forms with sturdy slab serifs to preserve clarity and consistency in continuous reading.
Capitals are tall and disciplined, with strong verticals and squared-off finishing that keeps the texture even. Lowercase details lean traditional rather than geometric, helping paragraphs hold together smoothly while still looking crisp at larger display sizes.
