A sturdy serif with pronounced, gently bracketed serifs and subtly flared stroke endings that give stems a swelling, carved feel. The letterforms are compact and weighty with large, open counters and rounded curves, producing an even, steady color in text. Terminals are softly shaped rather than razor-sharp, and the overall rhythm balances broad, rounded bowls with firm verticals for a clear, readable silhouette.
Well suited to headlines and subheads where strong presence and classic credibility are needed, and it also holds up in short-to-medium editorial text thanks to its open counters and steady rhythm. It can support branding systems that want a traditional voice with a slightly sculpted, tactile finish, and it works well for packaging and promotional materials that benefit from weight and warmth.
The tone is confident and traditional, with a warm, approachable gravity. It reads as editorial and established—more classic than trendy—while the rounded details keep it friendly rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with extra solidity and a subtly sculpted finish, using flared endings and generous shapes to stay readable while projecting authority.
Uppercase forms feel especially solid and display-ready, while the lowercase maintains sturdy proportions and clear apertures for continuous reading. Numerals match the overall heft and roundness, supporting impactful headlines and emphatic callouts.
