A sturdy slab serif with pronounced, mostly square serifs and clear bracketing into the stems. Strokes show noticeable contrast between thick verticals and finer horizontals, creating a crisp, print-oriented texture. The letterforms feel broad and stable with generous counters, while details like the strong foot serifs on capitals and the compact joins in lowercase give the design a disciplined, workmanlike rhythm. Numerals are weighty and legible with straightforward shapes and firm terminals that align with the slab construction.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and titling where its slab serifs and solid presence can carry hierarchy. It also fits book covers and editorial layouts that want a classic, dependable serif voice with strong structure and clear letter separation.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a calm, editorial seriousness. Its heavy slabs and structured proportions suggest reliability and a slightly institutional character, evoking textbook, newspaper, or archival print rather than playful or experimental styling.
The design appears intended to provide a robust, readable slab serif with a traditional print sensibility—combining firm serifs, crisp contrast, and stable proportions to communicate authority and clarity in display and editorial contexts.
In the sample text, the font maintains a consistent, even color at larger sizes, and the slab forms remain clear in tight settings. The lowercase shows a single-storey “g” and a strongly built “t,” reinforcing a practical, readable voice suited to sustained reading in display-to-subhead sizes.
