A heavy, expanded serif with broad proportions and robust, compact counters. Stems and arms end in subtly flared, wedge-like terminals that read as softened serifs, producing a strong horizontal emphasis without becoming slabby. Curves are full and rounded, joins are sturdy, and the overall rhythm is even and blocky, with restrained stroke modulation that keeps letterforms dark and stable in text.
Best used at display sizes where its width and dark color can carry impact—magazine or newspaper-style headlines, mastheads, posters, and brand wordmarks. It can also work for short bursts of text (subheads, pull quotes, signage) where strong emphasis and a traditional serif voice are desired.
The tone is authoritative and traditional, with a confident, headline-forward presence. Its wide stance and substantial weight suggest institutional seriousness—suited to messaging that wants to feel established, dependable, and emphatic rather than delicate or playful.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic serif identity with extra weight and width for maximum presence, using flared terminals to add refinement and directional stress while keeping the overall silhouette bold and legible.
Uppercase forms are particularly solid and monumental, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation and a steady baseline color. Numerals match the same broad, sturdy construction, making them visually consistent in mixed alphanumeric settings.
