A sturdy serif with strongly bracketed, flared stroke endings that broaden into wedge-like terminals. The design shows moderate contrast with a pronounced vertical stress and generously rounded joins, giving counters a warm, slightly bulbous feel. Capitals are wide and steady, while lowercase forms are compact with a solid, high-shouldered rhythm; the serifs tend to read as tapered and subtly curved rather than flat slabs. Overall spacing is comfortable and the texture in text is dense but even, supported by large bowls and confident diagonals.
It performs best in headlines, mastheads, and editorial display where the flared serifs and rounded modeling can be appreciated. It also suits book covers, identity marks, and packaging that benefit from a classic, established voice with strong presence.
The tone is traditional and assured, with a slightly old-style, bookish warmth that still feels forceful in display sizes. It suggests heritage printing and institutional seriousness, but the rounded modeling keeps it approachable rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional serif voice with extra emphasis and a distinctive flared finishing, balancing historical cues with a sturdy, contemporary display weight. Its broad forms and confident terminals aim for impact without sacrificing readability in short passages.
Numerals are heavy and highly legible, with notably rounded forms (especially 6/8/9) and a distinctive, curling terminal on the 2 that adds character. The ampersand and curved letters show a consistent soft modeling that prevents the bold weight from feeling mechanical.
