A sturdy slab-serif with broad, block-like serifs and mostly straight, squared-off terminals. Strokes are even and calm, with minimal modulation, giving the letterforms a solid, grounded color on the page. Curves are generous but controlled (notably in C/O), while joints and corners stay crisp, creating a slightly mechanical, structured rhythm. Proportions feel balanced and readable, with round counters and clear apertures that hold up well in paragraph settings.
Well-suited for editorial typography where a firm serif presence is desired, including magazine layouts, book text, and pull quotes. It also works effectively for headlines and branding that benefit from a classic, authoritative slab-serif voice, and for signage or packaging where strong letter shapes aid quick recognition.
The font conveys a traditional, workmanlike authority—practical and dependable rather than delicate. Its slab presence adds a confident, editorial tone that reads as classic and slightly institutional, with a touch of vintage printing character.
The design appears intended to deliver a dependable slab-serif texture with clear, modernized shapes—combining traditional serif cues with squared terminals for steady readability and a confident typographic tone across text and display sizes.
The numerals share the same robust, square-ended logic and maintain consistent weight and spacing with the letters. Overall spacing appears comfortable, supporting continuous reading without looking airy or condensed.
