A sturdy slab serif with heavy, bracketed serifs and a compact, workmanlike build. Strokes are broadly even with minimal modulation, producing a dense color and strong vertical rhythm. Counters are relatively tight, terminals are squared and blunt, and curves are rounded but firmly controlled, giving letters a solid, carved-in feel. The lowercase maintains a conventional skeleton with a moderate x-height and short-to-moderate extenders, while the numerals are wide, weighty, and highly stable on the baseline.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and short blocks of copy where a strong, grounded serif is desired. It can serve editorial layouts, packaging, and signage that need legibility with a sturdy, traditional tone, particularly in medium-to-large sizes where the slab details read clearly.
The overall tone is dependable and no-nonsense, with an assertive, print-forward presence. It reads as classic and utilitarian rather than delicate or fashionable, leaning toward a traditional, institutional voice.
The design appears intended as a dependable slab serif for general-purpose display and editorial use, prioritizing solidity, clarity, and an even typographic color. Its bracketed slabs and blunt terminals suggest a focus on durable, print-oriented communication rather than refined contrast or ornamental flourish.
At text sizes the heavy serifs and tight interiors create a strong, continuous texture, while at display sizes the bracketed slab details and squared terminals become more prominent. The design favors impact and stability, with a slightly condensed feel in some letters that reinforces its compact, blocklike character.
