A robust text serif with bracketed wedge serifs and pronounced stroke contrast, pairing thick verticals with finer joins and terminals. The letterforms feel broad and steady, with open counters and a relatively generous set width that supports clear word shapes. Serifs are firm and slightly flared, giving a grounded baseline and crisp horizontals, while curves (C, G, O, e) are smooth and evenly tensioned. Figures are sturdy and readable, with a strong, classic rhythm suited to continuous reading and emphatic headlines alike.
Well-suited to editorial design, book typography, and magazine layouts where a strong serif voice is desired. It also performs effectively for headlines, posters, and brand wordmarks that need a traditional, confident character and clear letterforms at larger sizes.
The font conveys a traditional, authoritative tone associated with established publishing and institutional print. Its bold presence and crisp serifs add a confident, slightly old-style gravitas that feels serious and dependable rather than delicate or playful.
The design appears intended as a conventional, publication-oriented serif with extra weight and presence, aiming for high-impact readability while retaining classic, bracketed-serif detailing and a steady text rhythm.
In the sample text, the heavy color and broad proportions create strong emphasis at display sizes, while the consistent serif treatment helps maintain a cohesive texture across mixed case. The lowercase shows familiar text-serif construction (two-storey a, compact e) that reinforces a conventional reading pattern.
