A sturdy slab serif with thick, blocky serifs and minimal stroke contrast. Terminals are squared with slightly softened corners, giving the letterforms a dense, stable footprint. Counters are relatively open for the weight, and the curves (notably in C, G, O, S, and the lowercase a/e) are smooth and broadly drawn. The overall rhythm is even and legible, with robust verticals and clear joins that keep the texture consistent in continuous text.
Well-suited to editorial typography, packaging, and brand systems that need a strong slab-serif anchor. It performs confidently in headlines and subheads, and its steady texture makes it a solid choice for short blocks of text such as pull quotes, captions, and informational signage.
The font conveys a dependable, no-nonsense tone with a familiar, bookish presence. Its heavy serifs and solid color suggest authority and clarity rather than delicacy, creating a straightforward, confident voice suited to informative and editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a versatile slab serif that prioritizes firmness, readability, and an even typographic color. Its restrained detailing and robust serifs aim to provide a reliable, broadly usable voice across display and text-adjacent applications.
Numerals are sturdy and readable, with simple, workmanlike shapes that match the caps and lowercase. The lowercase shows traditional, upright constructions (single-storey g, two-storey a) that reinforce an editorial, text-forward character while still holding up well at larger sizes.
