A robust slab-serif with broad proportions, sturdy verticals, and low stroke contrast. The serifs are heavy and mostly squared-off with subtle bracketing, producing a stable, grounded texture in both display and longer lines. Counters are open and generous, and round letters (O, C, G) are fairly wide, while joins and terminals stay crisp and firmly cut. The lowercase shows a two-storey “a,” single-storey “g,” round i/j dots, and a compact, readable rhythm that stays even across mixed-case text.
Well-suited to headlines and subheads where a strong, grounded voice is needed, and it also performs reliably in editorial settings thanks to its open counters and steady rhythm. The bold, square-ended details make it effective for posters, packaging, and signage where clarity and impact are both important.
The overall tone is confident and workmanlike, with a bookish, institutional feel that suggests authority without feeling ornamental. Its sturdy slabs and broad stance give it an editorial gravitas, while the straightforward drawing keeps it approachable and highly readable.
The design appears intended to deliver a solid slab-serif voice optimized for clarity and confident emphasis. It balances sturdy, squared serif shapes with restrained detailing to remain legible and dependable across both short statements and longer reading settings.
The numerals match the letterforms’ sturdy construction and maintain consistent weight and presence in text. Spacing appears comfortable and text color is dense but controlled, helping paragraphs hold together without looking tight or brittle.
