A robust serif with pronounced, bracketed serifs and subtly flared stroke endings that give stems a gently widened finish. Letterforms show moderate contrast with a clear, slightly calligraphic stress, combining sturdy verticals with rounded bowls and carefully shaped joins. Proportions are fairly classical, with ample counters and a steady rhythm; the lowercase is compact but open, and the numerals are full-bodied and highly readable. Overall texture is dark and even, suited to strong typographic presence without becoming rigid or geometric.
Best suited for headlines, deck text, and editorial typography where a strong serif voice is needed. It can also work well for branding and packaging that aims for a classic, premium feel, and for display copy in posters or pull quotes where dark color and crisp serif details help the message stand out.
The font conveys a traditional, confident tone with an editorial seriousness. Its weight and firm serif structure feel institutional and trustworthy, while the flared details add a refined, slightly crafted character rather than a purely mechanical one.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif reading of authority and tradition, with flared terminals and bracketed serifs adding warmth and craft. It prioritizes impact and clarity, balancing conventional proportions with distinctive stroke endings to create a recognizable, editorial-forward texture.
The capitals read stately and stable, with broad, confident forms (notably in rounded letters like C/O and the wide W). In text, the heavy color and clear word shapes support emphasis and impact, suggesting it will hold up well in headings and short blocks where presence matters.
