A heavy, bracketed slab serif with compact proportions and a pronounced, poster-like color. Serifs are broad and mostly square-ended, eased by subtle bracketing and softened corners that keep the forms from feeling rigid. Curves are generously rounded with a slightly condensed, vertical stress impression, while joins and notches show small scooped cut-ins that add texture and improve separation at bold sizes. Lowercase features sturdy stems, a single-storey a, and ball/teardrop terminals in places (notably on f and j), contributing to a lively, crafted rhythm despite the overall solidity.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other display settings where a bold serif voice is needed. It can also work well for editorial branding, book or magazine titling, packaging, and signage that benefits from a sturdy, traditional character.
The font conveys a classic, print-forward tone—confident, traditional, and a bit nostalgic—while the softened detailing keeps it approachable rather than severe. Its strong presence reads as dependable and editorial, with a hint of vintage signage and old-style book typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact slab serif for print-like communication—combining strong, square serifs with softened shaping and small cut-ins to maintain clarity and charm at larger sizes.
Capitals are wide and stable with strong horizontal serifs, producing clear word shapes in all-caps. Numerals are robust and open, designed to hold up at display sizes with clear counters and emphatic curves.
