A robust slab-serif with thick, square serifs and gently bracketed joins that keep the shapes from feeling overly rigid. Strokes are broadly even with minimal contrast, and the overall color is dark and steady in text. Counters are open and legible, with rounded interior shaping that softens the otherwise blocky construction. Uppercase forms feel broad and stable, while lowercase maintains a straightforward rhythm with simple, workmanlike details and clear punctuation and figures.
Well-suited to editorial display and headline settings where a solid, authoritative texture is needed without sacrificing readability. It also fits packaging, signage, and promotional materials that benefit from a strong, vintage-leaning slab presence and clear numerals.
The tone is sturdy and dependable, with a slightly nostalgic, print-forward character reminiscent of classic news and industrial typography. Its heavy serifs and even weight convey confidence and clarity, while the softened curves add a friendly, approachable warmth.
Likely intended as a reliable, general-purpose slab serif for impactful text, balancing sturdy construction with softened details for comfortable reading at display sizes and bold typographic emphasis.
The design prioritizes clear silhouettes and consistent spacing, producing a strong horizontal footing across words and lines. Figures match the overall heft, supporting emphatic, attention-holding numerals alongside text.
