A robust serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and a confident, weighty color. Strokes show moderate contrast with rounded joins and soft transitions, keeping counters open while maintaining a dense, sturdy rhythm. Uppercase proportions are slightly condensed and monumental, while the lowercase reads compact and steady, with single-story a and g, a curled ear on g, and a prominent beak on f. Terminals frequently finish in ball or teardrop-like shapes (notably on j and y), lending a subtly calligraphic finish within an otherwise conventional text structure. Numerals are similarly weighty with traditional forms and rounded curves, matching the text’s strong presence.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and editorial typography where a strong, traditional serif voice is desired. The weight and firm detailing also fit book covers, posters, and branding or institutional materials that benefit from a stately, established character.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with a bookish, editorial feel that suggests tradition and permanence. Its heavy presence and carved-looking serifs give it a dignified, institutional voice, while the occasional ball terminals add a slight warmth and humanistic touch.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, text-serif foundation with added emphasis and presence for titling, combining traditional proportions with sturdier strokes and expressive terminals for impact.
The design maintains consistent serif treatment across cases, with clear, stable baselines and a deliberate, even texture in longer lines. The italic is not shown; the samples indicate a straightforward roman intended to hold up at larger text and display sizes where its sturdy details remain visible.
