A confident serif with thick, low-contrast strokes and subtly flared, bracketed endings that read as wedge-like serifs rather than slabs. Curves are broad and smoothly joined, giving round letters (O/C/G) a full, even presence, while verticals stay dominant and steady. Counters are relatively compact and apertures are moderately open, producing a dark, continuous texture in text. Numerals and capitals appear robust and display-ready, with clear silhouettes and slightly sculpted terminals that keep the forms from feeling purely geometric.
Best suited for short-to-medium setting where presence and clarity matter—headlines, deck type, magazine titles, packaging, and brand marks. It can also work for emphasis in editorial layouts or pull quotes, where its dense color and sturdy serifs help anchor the page.
The tone is authoritative and traditional, with a contemporary sturdiness that feels suited to headlines and institutional messaging. Its weight and flared detailing suggest confidence and permanence, while the rounded construction keeps it approachable rather than sharp or austere.
Likely designed to deliver a classic serif voice with added strength and modern punch, using flared terminals and rounded construction to balance tradition with bold legibility. The overall forms prioritize impact and steady rhythm, aiming for reliable performance in display and prominent text roles.
In the sample text, the font maintains strong line-to-line rhythm and a dense typographic color, emphasizing impact over delicacy. The flared terminals are especially noticeable on strokes that finish horizontally or diagonally, adding a carved, engraved-like nuance without introducing high contrast.
