A sturdy slab serif with bold, bracketed terminals and a clear, even rhythm. Strokes show noticeable modulation, with heavier verticals and comparatively lighter connecting strokes, while the serifs read as substantial and supportive rather than hairline. The letterforms are broadly proportioned with open counters and straightforward, legible shapes; curves are smooth and controlled, and joins remain crisp at text sizes. Numerals follow the same robust, text-friendly construction with strong baseline presence and stable spacing.
Well suited to editorial layouts where you want a firm, classic texture—magazine features, newspapers, and book typography. It can carry section heads and subheads with authority, and it also works for branding that needs a heritage-leaning, trustworthy impression, especially when paired with clean sans serif companions.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a newspaper-and-book sensibility that feels dependable and established. Its strong serifs and ample proportions give it a confident voice suited to serious, information-forward typography rather than decorative display.
Likely designed to provide a robust, readable slab serif for contemporary publishing—combining traditional proportions and bracketed slabs with enough contrast to keep paragraphs lively and headlines assertive.
In the sample text, the font maintains clarity across dense paragraphs, with consistent color and a solid horizontal anchoring from the serifs. The lowercase shows a familiar, workmanlike texture that supports continuous reading, while capitals retain a formal, engraved-like presence without becoming ornamental.
