A robust serif with compact proportions and a dark overall color. Strokes show moderate contrast with confident verticals and rounded joins, and the serifs are bracketed with a slightly flared, inked-in feel that reads well at display sizes. The lowercase has a steady, conventional construction with a two-storey “g” and clear, open counters, while curves and terminals lean toward a subtly softened, print-like finish. Numerals are sturdy and legible, with straightforward forms that match the text rhythm.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and short paragraphs where a strong serif presence is desired. It can support editorial layouts, book and magazine typography, packaging, and brand marks that benefit from a classic, print-forward character.
The tone is traditional and authoritative, evoking classic book typography and institutional printing. Its weight and compact rhythm give it a serious, dependable voice suited to emphatic headlines and formal copy.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading experience with extra visual punch, balancing familiar text forms with a heavier, more compact build for confident display and editorial emphasis.
Spacing appears relatively tight and the weight distribution produces a strong, poster-like presence in paragraphs. Curved letters and diagonals retain a slightly softened edge, which helps keep the heavy color from feeling harsh.
