A sturdy slab-serif with squared, confident serifs and mostly flat stroke endings that create a crisp, engineered rhythm. Strokes sit in a moderate contrast range, with clear thick–thin transitions but an overall solid, even color on the page. Uppercase proportions feel traditional and balanced, while lowercase forms are straightforward with a conventional x-height and open counters; rounded letters stay smooth rather than geometric. Numerals read clearly at text sizes, with consistent serif treatment and stable, upright construction.
Well-suited to book and magazine typography, academic or institutional materials, and reports where readability and a steady typographic color are important. It can also serve for headlines and subheads when a strong, grounded slab-serif voice is desired without moving into overtly decorative territory.
The face conveys an editorial, bookish tone—serious and dependable without feeling ornate. Its firm slab structure adds an institutional, authoritative voice that suits formal communication and long-form reading.
Likely designed as a practical slab-serif for general-purpose typesetting, aiming for clear text performance and a confident, structured appearance. The design emphasizes consistent serif mechanics and stable proportions to remain readable and authoritative across paragraphs and headings.
Spacing appears comfortable and regular in the sample text, producing an even texture across lines. The slab terminals and consistent serif logic give it a reliable presence in both capitals and mixed-case settings, with shapes that prioritize clarity over display eccentricity.
