A compact serif with sturdy, even stroke weight and subtly flared stroke endings that broaden into bracketed serifs. The drawing emphasizes verticals and squared-off curves, with tight internal apertures and a relatively condensed set width that creates a dense, emphatic texture. Caps feel tall and blocky with crisp terminals; lowercase forms stay straightforward and readable, with a two-story a and g and short, firm serifs that keep the rhythm consistent. Figures are heavy and stable with clear, upright construction suited to strong typographic color.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and display copy where a dense, commanding serif is desired. It can also serve for editorial titling, book and magazine covers, and brand marks that need a classic voice with extra weight and compactness.
The overall tone is authoritative and traditional, with an editorial seriousness that reads as established and institutional. Its compact heft and flared detailing evoke classic print typography, lending a slightly vintage, headline-driven character without feeling ornamental.
Likely designed to deliver a strong, space-efficient serif for display and titling, combining traditional bracketed serifs with flared stroke endings to increase impact and maintain legibility in dense settings.
In running text, the tight spacing and closed counters produce a dark, assertive paragraph color, especially at larger sizes. The flaring at stroke ends adds presence and a subtle calligraphic echo while maintaining a largely geometric, no-nonsense silhouette.
