A sturdy slab-serif with broad proportions and a firm, even rhythm. Strokes read mostly low-contrast, with thick, rectangular serifs that feel slightly bracketed rather than purely abrupt, helping the joins look supported and stable. The capitals are wide and assertive with generous counters, while the lowercase maintains clear, open forms and a straightforward, upright construction. Terminals are clean and blunt, giving the design a crisp, print-forward silhouette that stays readable at display sizes and holds together well in text.
Well-suited to headlines, decks, and pull quotes where a solid slab-serif voice is needed, and it can also serve editorial layouts that want a traditional, print-like texture. Its broad letterforms and robust serifs make it effective for posters, packaging, and signage where clarity and presence matter.
The overall tone is authoritative and familiar, combining a traditional, editorial voice with a confident, no-nonsense presence. It suggests established institutions—publishing, academia, and news—while still feeling approachable due to its open shapes and steady spacing.
The design appears intended to deliver a dependable slab-serif look with strong structure and high legibility, emphasizing stability and emphasis without relying on extreme contrast or calligraphic behavior. It aims to read as classic and authoritative while remaining versatile across display and longer setting.
In the sample text, the heavy slabs and strong horizontals create a pronounced baseline and headline impact. Numerals appear sturdy and legible, matching the letterforms with consistent weight and similarly blocky serif treatment.
