A robust text serif with bracketed serifs, crisp triangular terminals, and a strong vertical stress. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation, with sturdy stems and carefully tapered joins that keep counters open even at heavier weight. Proportions lean slightly broad, and the letterforms maintain a steady rhythm with conventional construction and restrained detailing across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
Well suited to editorial typography where a strong serif texture is desired, including magazine pages, book interiors at larger sizes, and pull quotes. The weight and contrast also make it effective for headlines, title treatments, and formal branding or institutional materials that benefit from a traditional, print-forward feel.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, evoking printed literature and institutional communication. Its bold presence feels confident and dependable, with a dignified, editorial character rather than an expressive or quirky voice.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif with added firmness for impact, aiming to deliver classic readability while projecting a confident, established presence in both display and longer-form settings.
The capitals read stately and stable, while the lowercase combines compact bowls with clear, sharp finishing strokes that add bite without becoming decorative. Numerals appear similarly weighty and legible, matching the serifed texture of the alphabet and supporting consistent color in paragraph settings.
