A sturdy serif with pronounced stroke contrast and sharply cut, bracketed wedge serifs. The letterforms show compact proportions, strong vertical stress, and crisp terminals that read as carved rather than rounded. Counters are relatively tight, with squared shoulders and firm joins that give the design a dense, assertive texture. Numerals and capitals maintain a consistent, upright rhythm with clear differentiation and a deliberate, display-leaning weight presence.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and editorial typography where a compact, high-impact serif is needed. It can also support book covers and branding that call for a classic, authoritative voice, especially when set with generous leading to balance its dense texture.
The overall tone is traditional and commanding, with a newspaper/editorial seriousness and a slightly institutional formality. Its crisp serifs and compact rhythm add a no-nonsense, authoritative voice suited to confident messaging.
The font appears intended to deliver a conventional serif look with extra visual authority—combining traditional proportions and familiar structures with sharper, more emphatic serifs for stronger headline presence.
In the sample text, the dense color and narrow apertures create a strong typographic “block” that holds up well at larger sizes. The design’s sharp terminals and beaked details add character without tipping into ornamental styling, keeping the impression disciplined and conventional.
