A sturdy slab serif with broad, square-shouldered forms and low stroke contrast. Serifs are prominent and mostly flat-ended, with subtle bracketing that softens joins without losing the blocky presence. Capitals read wide and steady with generous internal counters (notably in C, G, O, Q), while the lowercase keeps a conventional book-text rhythm with a clear two-storey a and single-storey g. Terminals are firm and cut cleanly, giving the design a crisp, print-forward texture that holds up well at larger text sizes.
Well-suited to editorial settings where a strong serif voice is desired, such as magazine layouts, book typography, and newspaper-inspired design. The pronounced slabs also make it effective for headings, pull quotes, and poster-style titling where a firm, authoritative texture helps anchor the page.
The overall tone feels editorial and institutional—confident, steady, and slightly old-school in a familiar publishing way. The heavy slabs add authority and a touch of collegiate or newspaper flavor without becoming decorative, projecting reliability and seriousness.
Likely intended as a dependable slab serif for publishing-oriented work, balancing traditional letterforms with bold, squared serifs to increase presence and clarity. The design prioritizes consistent rhythm and strong structure for confident reading and display use.
Numerals appear robust and straightforward with strong baseline presence, matching the font’s confident texture. The sample text shows consistent color and spacing, producing a dense but readable paragraph tone with clear word shapes and stable alignment across lines.
