A robust slab-serif with broad, squared serifs and largely unbracketed joins that give the letterforms a blocky, carved presence. Strokes stay relatively even throughout, with generous counters in rounded letters and firm, flat terminals that keep the rhythm steady in text. Capitals are wide and authoritative, while lowercase forms are compact and sturdy, with a clear, workmanlike structure that reads cleanly at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and short passages where a strong slab presence can carry the page. It works well for brand marks, packaging, signage, and editorial layouts that benefit from a sturdy, traditional voice and high-impact letterforms.
The overall tone is confident and traditional, with a strong editorial and collegiate flavor. Its weight and squared finishing convey stability and seriousness, suggesting headlines that want to feel established and dependable rather than delicate or playful.
The font appears intended to deliver a classic slab-serif authority with clear, squared terminals and a solid, high-ink footprint. Its construction prioritizes impact and stability, aiming for legible, dependable typography in display-forward applications.
The design emphasizes straight edges and rectangular serif planes, producing a crisp, poster-friendly silhouette. Numerals share the same heavy, grounded construction, supporting consistent emphasis across mixed alphanumeric settings.
