A sturdy serif with broad proportions and a strong, even color on the page. Strokes are low-contrast with subtly flared endings and bracketed serifs that feel integrated rather than sharply cut. The shapes favor open counters and fairly wide bowls, while curves transition smoothly into straights, giving the letterforms a slightly softened, engineered solidity. Spacing and rhythm read steady and composed in both the grid and text sample.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, and pull quotes where a strong serif voice is needed without relying on high contrast. It can carry brand marks and packaging well, and it holds up in short blocks of text where a firm, classic tone is desirable.
The overall tone is confident and editorial, combining traditional serif cues with a contemporary, robust presence. It feels serious and dependable rather than delicate, projecting clarity and authority at display and headline sizes.
Likely designed to deliver a modernized, no-nonsense serif that stays legible and forceful at larger sizes while retaining familiar, bookish cues. The flared endings and broad proportions suggest an emphasis on durability, readability, and a confident editorial character.
Rounded forms like O/0 and bowls in B/P/R appear full and stable, with terminals that broaden gently instead of ending abruptly. The numerals match the letters in weight and presence, reading clean and straightforward in the sample.
