A robust serif with pronounced stroke contrast and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. The forms feel tightly engineered: strong verticals, narrowed apertures in many lowercase letters, and a compact, weighty texture that holds together in dense settings. Terminals often resolve into rounded, ball-like details (notably in letters like a, c, f, j, and y), adding a subtle calligraphic finish to otherwise sturdy, print-oriented shapes. Numerals appear oldstyle in feel, with varied heights and lively curves that match the text rhythm.
Well-suited to headlines, magazine features, book and chapter titles, and other editorial settings where a bold serif voice is desired. It can also work for short blocks of text or pull quotes when a dense, authoritative typographic color is acceptable and part of the intended impact.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, with a confident, slightly theatrical presence. It suggests established institutions and print heritage—serious and authoritative, but with a touch of warmth from the rounded terminals and flowing curves.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic text-serif framework amplified for high-impact, print-like emphasis—pairing sharp, bracketed serifs and strong contrast with rounded terminals to keep the tone lively and distinctive.
At display sizes the sharp serifs and dramatic contrast read as crisp and refined; in paragraph-like sample text the heavy weight produces a dark, emphatic color with clear word shapes and strong punctuation. The mix of crisp wedges and round terminals creates a distinctive rhythm that feels more characterful than purely neutral book serifs.
