A sturdy serif with slab-like, bracketed serifs and mostly flat terminals, combining straight-sided stems with softly rounded bowls. The stroke contrast is modest, with weight carried consistently through verticals and horizontals, and a wide set that gives letters ample internal space. Curves are smooth and controlled, joins are clean, and the overall rhythm is even and legible, with clear differentiation between similar forms in the capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book or report typography, and headline work where a stable, readable serif voice is needed. Its wide stance and solid serifs also make it effective for branding, packaging, and poster typography that benefits from a confident, print-classic presence.
The tone is traditional and assured, with a bookish, institutional feel. Its broad proportions and firm serifs add a sense of stability and authority, while the moderate contrast keeps it approachable for longer reading.
Likely intended to provide a dependable, text-capable slab-serif voice with strong presence and high readability. The wide set and restrained contrast suggest a focus on steady color on the page and clear performance from headings down into extended passages.
The design reads well at display sizes in the sample text, where the wide proportions and open counters help maintain clarity. Numerals appear robust and evenly colored, matching the text weight and reinforcing a steady, print-forward texture.
