A sturdy slab serif with heavy, squared serifs and clearly bracketed joins that soften the slab shapes. Strokes are broadly even, with minimal contrast and a solid, dark typographic color. Counters are moderately open and the proportions feel roomy across the alphabet, while rounds (C, O, Q) keep a controlled, slightly compact oval. Lowercase forms are straightforward and workmanlike, with a two-storey a and single-storey g, plus simple, strong terminals that reinforce the utilitarian rhythm.
This face suits headlines and subheads where a firm presence is needed, and it also holds up well in short-to-medium passages thanks to its open shapes and steady rhythm. It’s a strong option for branding, packaging, and signage that benefits from a traditional slab-serif authority.
The overall tone is dependable and no-nonsense, evoking classic editorial and industrial printing. Its weight and slab structure give it a confident, emphatic voice that reads as established and trustworthy rather than decorative.
The design appears intended as a straightforward, high-impact slab serif that prioritizes clarity and stability. Its consistent stroke weight and restrained detailing suggest a practical workhorse built to deliver emphasis without relying on novelty.
The numerals are heavy and clear, matching the letterforms with blunt, stable horizontals and strong vertical emphasis. Spacing appears even and predictable, supporting continuous text as well as short, punchy settings.
