A heavy, wide serif with pronounced flared terminals and softly bracketed, wedge-like serifs. Strokes maintain a strong vertical emphasis with moderate thick–thin differentiation, while curves are broad and generously rounded, producing open counters in letters like C, O, and e. The lowercase is sturdy and compactly structured, with a single-storey a and g, short ascenders, and a robust, rectangular rhythm; the dot on i is square. Numerals are weighty and stable, with wide bowls and strong horizontal footing that matches the caps’ planted stance.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and cover titling where its wide stance and flared serif detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for mastheads, logotypes, and institutional-style branding that needs a traditional yet bold presence, and can carry short pull quotes or subheads when ample space is available.
The overall tone is confident and formal, with a traditional, institutional feel tempered by broad proportions and friendly curvature. Its weight and flared endings read as authoritative and display-forward, evoking classic headline typography rather than delicate book texture.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with heightened width and strong, flared finishing, optimizing for high-impact display settings. Its sturdy lowercase and open counters suggest an emphasis on clarity and presence over delicate refinement.
Spacing appears generous and the forms are built for impact, with flattened curves and deep interior joins that keep counters clear at large sizes. The capital set feels especially monumental, and the wide cross-strokes and serifs create a strong horizontal sweep in words and lines.
