A heavy serif with broad proportions and compact internal counters, built on sturdy verticals and softly tapered joins. Serifs are pronounced and slightly flared, with smooth bracketing that helps the thick strokes transition into terminals without feeling slab-like. Curves are full and rounded, and diagonals are weighty, giving letters a dense, stable texture; subtle notches and tightening at joins suggest an ink-conscious, print-oriented drawing. Figures match the letterforms’ mass and width, producing a cohesive, emphatic color in setting.
Best suited to headlines, mastheads, and other short-to-medium display text where its dense color and prominent serifs can project impact. It can also support branding and packaging that aims for a classic, established voice, especially in bold typographic lockups.
The tone is confident and traditional, with an old-style, editorial gravitas that reads as established and reliable. Its weight and broad stance add a slightly collegiate, heritage flavor, suited to messaging that wants authority more than delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a traditional serif voice, using flared terminals and bracketing to keep heavy strokes readable and structured. It prioritizes a confident, print-forward texture that holds up when set large and tightly composed.
Spacing appears generous for such heavy forms, helping the dense strokes stay legible in display sizes. The rhythm is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, with a strong baseline and a distinctly sturdy overall silhouette.
