A robust serif with pronounced, bracketed serifs and subtly flared stroke endings that give the letterforms a sculpted, carved feel. The design is weighty with compact internal counters and a steady, upright stance, producing strong color in text. Curves are smooth and generously rounded, while joins and terminals stay crisp; diagonals in letters like V, W, and Y read firm and stable. The lowercase shows a large x-height and sturdy proportions, with a two-storey a, a looped g with a distinct ear, and clear, open apertures that help maintain legibility at display and text sizes.
This font performs especially well in headlines, decks, and editorial typography where a strong serif voice is needed. Its heavy, steady texture and clear forms also suit branding applications, poster work, and pull quotes, particularly where a traditional-but-bold impression is appropriate.
The overall tone is confident and editorial, balancing a classical, bookish sensibility with a modern boldness. It feels authoritative and dependable, suited to settings where clarity and gravitas are desired without looking overly delicate or ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, readable serif with a classical foundation and flared finishing details that add warmth and distinction. It aims for a strong typographic “color” and confident rhythm, prioritizing clarity and impact across prominent sizes and dense text settings.
Numerals are sturdy and highly readable, with clear differentiation (notably the 6/8/9) and consistent serif treatment. Capital shapes are broad and even, and punctuation in the sample text holds up well at larger sizes, reinforcing the font’s strong presence.
