A sturdy slab-serif with square, unbracketed serifs and largely uniform stroke weight. The forms are upright and moderately wide, with crisp terminals and a rectilinear feel, especially in the capitals. Curves are controlled rather than calligraphic, with rounded bowls kept taut and evenly drawn. The lowercase is readable and workmanlike, with simple, straight-ended details and a clear, conventional structure across the alphabet and figures.
It works well for editorial design, long-form reading, and book or report typography where a solid serif presence is desired. The strong slabs also make it suitable for headlines, posters, and signage that benefit from a clear, confident silhouette.
The overall tone is dependable and editorial, evoking traditional printing and institutional communication. Its firm slabs and restrained shapes give it an authoritative, pragmatic voice that feels more utilitarian than ornamental.
The design appears intended as a practical slab serif that balances traditional readability with a robust, square-seriffed personality. It prioritizes consistency and clarity, aiming to perform reliably in both text and display settings.
In text, the font maintains a steady rhythm with clear character separation and consistent color on the page. The numerals match the same sturdy construction, and the capitals present a confident, signage-like presence without becoming overly heavy or decorative.
