A sturdy slab-serif with broad proportions and a steady, low-contrast stroke. Serifs are heavy and mostly squared off with gentle bracketing, giving joins a reinforced, engineered feel rather than a sharp, chiseled one. Curves are generous and open, while vertical stems stay firm and even; overall spacing reads comfortable and slightly expansive, supporting clear word shapes at text sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same solid, workmanlike construction, with a consistent rhythm and minimal calligraphic modulation.
Well suited to editorial typography where a durable serif texture is desirable—book pages, magazine articles, essays, and report layouts. It can also carry short headlines and deck copy effectively, especially when you want a solid, traditional tone with strong presence.
The tone is grounded and trustworthy, with a classic, print-forward voice that feels at home in books and institutional contexts. Its wide stance and bold serif presence lend a confident, slightly old-world authority without becoming ornamental.
Likely designed to provide a dependable slab-serif voice for reading and display, balancing robust, squared serifs with open, readable forms. The aim appears to be a versatile, print-oriented workhorse that maintains authority and clarity across sizes.
In paragraph setting the strong slabs create a clear horizontal emphasis along the baseline and cap line, producing a stable texture. The italic is not shown; all samples read as upright, with straightforward forms and an emphasis on legibility over flourish.
