A robust slab-serif with broad proportions and a steady, upright stance. Strokes are heavy with clear, noticeable modulation, and the serifs read as strong rectangular slabs with subtle bracketing that softens joins without losing weight. Counters are relatively compact for the weight, giving letters a dense, high-ink texture, while round forms stay full and open enough to remain legible at display sizes. Terminals tend to finish squarely, and the overall rhythm is even, favoring solidity over delicacy.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and short blocks of emphatic copy where its heavy slabs and dense color can carry presence. It can also serve well in branding and packaging that call for a classic, dependable serif voice, and for signage or labels where sturdy letterforms help maintain clarity at larger sizes.
The tone is confident and traditional, with a workmanlike sturdiness that feels dependable and editorial. Its bold slabs and dense color suggest authority and clarity, evoking classic print headlines and institutional signage rather than a playful or minimalist voice.
Likely designed to deliver a strong, legible slab-serif voice with a classic print sensibility—balancing sturdy construction, clear serifs, and moderate stroke modulation to create authoritative display typography that holds up in bold settings.
Numerals appear strong and attention-grabbing, matching the capitals in weight and presence. The lowercase maintains a straightforward, readable structure, and the font’s overall color stays consistent across mixed-case text, producing a compact, headline-forward texture.
