A compact serif with sturdy, dark stems and clearly bracketed serifs that finish in crisp, slightly wedge-like terminals. The letterforms are upright and tightly set, with a relatively modest x-height and short extenders that reinforce an economical vertical rhythm. Counters are moderately open but controlled, and the overall texture reads dense and even on the line, with small, decisive details at joins and terminals giving the face a firm, print-like presence.
Well suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a compact, sturdy text serif is desirable. It can also serve effectively in newspapers, reports, and academic or corporate materials that need a traditional tone and a strong, consistent typographic color.
The tone feels traditional and editorial, with a confident, authoritative voice that suggests classic book typography and established institutions. Its compact, weighty color lends a serious, no-nonsense mood—more scholarly and literary than playful or decorative.
The design appears aimed at providing a dependable, space-efficient text serif with a classic feel and firm emphasis, prioritizing dense readability and an authoritative page texture for print-like settings.
Uppercase forms appear especially solid and commanding, while the lowercase maintains clarity through strong differentiation and consistent serif treatment. Numerals match the text weight and style closely, supporting continuous reading rather than calling attention to themselves.
