A sturdy slab-serif with heavy, squared serifs that are subtly bracketed into the stems, giving the letterforms a firm, grounded footprint. Strokes are largely even with moderate contrast, and terminals read clean and flat, producing a steady, no-nonsense texture in paragraphs. Counters are open and round, with a slightly compact feel in some joins, while the overall rhythm remains consistent from caps through lowercase and figures.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book and magazine typography, and other long-form settings where a strong serif structure helps guide the eye. It also performs confidently in headlines, posters, and packaging where a solid, traditional slab-serif voice is desired.
The tone is confident and traditional, with a bookish, institutional feel that suggests dependability rather than flair. Its bold slabs and calm proportions evoke familiar print typography—serious, legible, and slightly old-school.
Likely drawn to deliver a dependable slab-serif reading experience with emphatic serifs and a classic print texture. The design prioritizes sturdiness and clarity, aiming for an authoritative, editorial character that holds up in both display lines and continuous text.
In text, the strong serif presence creates pronounced horizontal emphasis and clear word shapes, especially at medium-to-large sizes. The figures appear sturdy and well-aligned, matching the overall blocky serif language for a cohesive typographic color.
