A sturdy slab serif with broad, rectangular serifs and gentle bracketing into the stems. Strokes are largely even, giving the face a solid, low-modulation texture, while rounded letters keep open counters and clear internal space. The lowercase shows a compact, workmanlike structure with a two-storey “a” and “g”, short-to-moderate ascenders/descenders, and straightforward terminals. Numerals are strong and blocky, matching the serif treatment and maintaining consistent color across text.
Well-suited for editorial layouts where a firm, authoritative serif voice is desirable, including magazines, reports, and book interiors. The strong serifs also help it perform in headlines and subheads, where its robust shapes can carry emphasis without relying on high contrast.
The overall tone is practical and dependable, with a traditional print feel that reads as steady rather than decorative. Its bold serif presence lends an editorial seriousness and a slightly rugged, no-nonsense character suitable for content-forward settings.
Likely designed as a straightforward, durable slab serif for general-purpose reading and publishing, prioritizing clarity, consistent texture, and a confident page presence.
Spacing and rhythm appear even in running text, producing a dark, consistent typographic color without looking cramped. The slab serifs are prominent enough to add personality at display sizes while remaining controlled and legible in paragraphs.
