A robust serif with strongly sculpted, bracketed serifs and pronounced stroke modulation. The letters show substantial, rounded main strokes paired with sharply tapered hairlines, producing a crisp, high-contrast texture. Terminals frequently finish in soft, ball-like endings (notably in lowercase forms), and curves are generously rounded, giving counters a full, open feel. Overall proportions are expansive with a steady baseline and a confident, solid rhythm in both capitals and lowercase.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, and other display applications where its high-contrast modeling and prominent serifs can be appreciated. It also fits editorial contexts such as magazine titles, book covers, and formal branding where a traditional, authoritative typographic voice is desired.
The tone reads traditional and authoritative, with an editorial, bookish flavor. Its high-contrast detailing and prominent serifs lend a stately, established voice suited to heritage or institutional messaging, while the rounded terminals keep it from feeling overly austere.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif presence with heightened drama through strong contrast and sculpted detailing, balancing tradition with a slightly softened feel via rounded terminals and generous curves.
The heavier weight and wide stance create strong word shapes and an emphatic color on the page, especially at display sizes. Numerals appear sturdy and legible with clear differentiation and classic serif detailing, matching the text’s formal character.
