A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs that often terminate in subtly beaked or wedge-like ends. The capitals are sturdy and broad-shouldered, with generous counters and a strong vertical emphasis; rounded forms (C, O) show clear stress and sharply tapered joins. Lowercase forms are compact and solid, with a two-storey a and g, sturdy stems, and rounded terminals that read as slightly ball-like in places, giving the texture a bold, ink-trap-free solidity rather than delicacy. Numerals match the headline-oriented color, with wide, weighty figures and clear interior shaping for legibility at larger sizes.
Well-suited to headlines, deck copy, and pull quotes where high contrast and strong serifs can create an authoritative editorial voice. It also fits book and magazine covers, cultural posters, and branding that aims for a classic, established tone, especially when set at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, projecting authority and formality with a confident, headline-ready presence. Its sharp contrast and pronounced serifs lend a literary, old-style gravitas while the heavy color keeps it assertive and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, tradition-leaning serif voice with heightened contrast and a heavier color for impact. It prioritizes a strong typographic silhouette and crisp serif detailing to perform in editorial and display contexts where presence and clarity are key.
Spacing in the samples produces a dense, punchy line texture, with strong word shapes and clear differentiation in key letters like I, J, and l. The design balances classic serif detailing with robust proportions, making it read more like a display text serif than a delicate book face at smaller sizes.
