A sturdy slab serif with squared, bracketless serifs and a calm, even stroke rhythm. Strokes stay largely monolinear, with flat terminals and firm joins that give the letters a solid, constructed feel. Proportions run slightly wide with generous internal space, and the lowercase shows a traditional, readable structure with a moderate x-height and clear differentiation between similar forms. Overall spacing and color are steady, producing a strong, consistent texture in text.
Well-suited to editorial settings where a strong typographic voice is needed without sacrificing readability, such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and section titling. The robust slabs also translate well to posters, packaging, and branding applications that benefit from a grounded, tactile presence.
The tone reads assured and workmanlike, with a subtle retro/editorial flavor. Its blunt serifs and stable geometry convey practicality and authority rather than delicacy, making it feel dependable and straightforward.
Likely designed to provide a classic slab-serif voice with modern clarity: strong, square-ended serifs for emphasis, paired with open forms and steady rhythm for comfortable reading. The intent appears to balance display impact with text usability across sizes.
Round letters remain broadly circular while still finishing with squared slab details, creating a pleasing tension between geometric bowls and blocky terminals. Numerals are clear and sturdy, matching the uppercase weight and maintaining legibility in running text.
