A robust slab-serif with heavy, squared terminals and subtly bracketed joins that soften the rectangular structure. Strokes are broadly even with moderate contrast, producing dark, steady color in text. Proportions are compact with relatively wide capitals and a straightforward, centered rhythm; counters stay open despite the weight, helping legibility at display and paragraph sizes. Lowercase forms are workmanlike and slightly condensed in feel, with round letters staying firm and upright; figures are solid and clear with simple, sturdy shapes.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where a strong slab-serif voice is needed. It also works in editorial settings—magazines, catalogs, and books—where you want firm typographic color and dependable readability. The sturdy forms can translate effectively to posters, packaging, and signage that benefit from a traditional, grounded look.
The overall tone is dependable and authoritative, with a familiar editorial and institutional character. Its weight and slab serifs give it a confident, no-nonsense voice that reads as classic and utilitarian rather than fashionable or delicate.
Likely drawn as a plainspoken, high-impact slab intended to balance display strength with practical readability. The bracketed slabs and compact proportions aim for an established, classic feel that performs consistently across prominent titles and supporting text.
The design favors stable horizontals and square-ended serifs, creating a strong baseline and consistent texture. In the sample text it maintains clarity and presence, suggesting it can carry long passages while still projecting a bold, headline-ready personality.
