A sturdy slab serif with heavy, rectangular serifs and mostly squared terminals, tempered by subtle bracketing where stems meet the slabs. Strokes are dense and even, with moderate contrast and compact counters that give the letters a solid, anchored color on the page. Curves (C, G, O, S) are round but firm, while joins and feet stay crisp and rectilinear, creating a strong horizontal rhythm. Lowercase forms are straightforward and workmanlike, and the numerals follow the same blunt, stable construction for consistent text color.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where a strong typographic voice is needed. It can also serve branding and packaging that benefits from a classic, sturdy slab-serif impression, and editorial layouts seeking a bold, authoritative texture.
The overall tone is confident and traditional, with a utilitarian seriousness that reads as dependable and editorial. Its weight and slab structure convey authority and durability rather than delicacy, giving text a grounded, no-nonsense presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic slab-serif presence with strong horizontal emphasis and clear, sturdy letterforms. It prioritizes impact and consistency across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, aiming for a dependable display-to-text workhorse feel in heavier settings.
In the sample text, the heavy serifs and compact apertures create a dark, continuous texture, emphasizing word shapes and baseline strength. The face feels optimized for impact and clarity at medium to large sizes, where the bracketing and internal shapes have room to breathe.
