A robust text serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and clearly bracketed wedge serifs. The letterforms are broad-shouldered with generous proportions and a steady, upright stance, producing a dark, even typographic color. Curves are smooth and full, with visible ball terminals on several lowercase forms (notably a, c, f, and j), and counters stay open despite the weight. The capitals feel stately and slightly condensed in their inner spaces, while the lowercase maintains a conventional structure with a moderate x-height and strong, confident stems.
Best suited for editorial headlines, magazine display, book covers, and brand identities that benefit from a classic serif with substantial presence. It also works for pull quotes and section openers where a dark, authoritative texture is desirable, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is classic and assertive, balancing a traditional bookish voice with a more forceful, poster-ready presence. It reads as trustworthy and established, suited to messaging that aims for gravitas rather than neutrality. The broad proportions and sculpted serifs add a subtly dramatic, editorial character.
The design appears intended to modernize a conventional text-serif foundation with stronger weight and broader proportions for emphasis. Its sculpted serifs and ball terminals suggest an aim toward expressive, high-impact reading while staying within familiar, traditional letterform norms.
In the sample text, the heavy strokes and strong serifs emphasize word shapes and create clear rhythm, especially at larger sizes. Numerals appear sturdy and old-style leaning in spirit, with noticeable curvature and weight distribution that matches the text forms. The design’s width and contrast make it particularly impactful in headings while still retaining recognizable, conventional serif construction.
