A wide, high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. Capitals are broad and steady with substantial vertical stems and sharply tapered joins, while round letters (O, C) show a confident, sculpted curve. Lowercase forms are compact and robust with a two-storey a and g, a strong vertical stress, and rounded terminals that keep counters open at display sizes. Numerals are similarly weighty and traditional, with clear differentiation and a consistent, emphatic rhythm across the set.
Best suited for headlines, decks, and other display-forward editorial contexts where its width and contrast can create impact. It can work for short passages in high-quality print layouts, but will be most effective when given generous spacing and scale, such as magazine titles, book covers, posters, and heritage-leaning branding.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with a refined, editorial presence that reads as formal and established. Its broad proportions and strong contrast create a sense of gravitas suited to classic, institution-forward typography rather than casual or playful voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, conventional serif voice with added presence through broad proportions and emphatic contrast. It aims for clear, traditional letterforms that feel familiar in editorial and institutional settings while still making a strong display statement.
At larger sizes the heavy hairline-to-main-stroke contrast becomes a defining feature, giving the face a polished, engraved-like sharpness; in dense settings it can appear visually assertive due to the wide set and strong vertical emphasis. The punctuation and small details (like the i/j dots) read as round and deliberate, supporting a composed, conventional texture.
