A sturdy slab-serif with broad proportions and a calm, even rhythm. Strokes are predominantly monolinear with gently rounded joins and softly bracketed, blocky serifs that read as bold and supportive rather than sharp. Counters are open and generous, and the curves are full and slightly softened, giving the letterforms a solid, ink-friendly presence. Numerals and capitals maintain a consistent, workmanlike structure, with clear terminals and an overall emphasis on stability and legibility.
Well suited for editorial layouts, book and magazine typography, and other text-forward applications that benefit from firm serifs and consistent texture. It can also work effectively in packaging, labels, and straightforward branding where a sturdy, familiar voice is desired.
The tone feels dependable and straightforward, with a classic print sensibility. Its chunky serifs and softened geometry suggest a practical, slightly vintage flavor—more newsroom and catalog than luxury or avant‑garde. Overall it communicates confidence, approachability, and durability.
Likely designed as a plainspoken slab for everyday reading and general-purpose composition—prioritizing legibility, consistent texture, and a dependable, no-nonsense character over stylistic flourish.
The spacing and color stay steady in text, producing an even typographic gray that holds up well at larger sizes while remaining readable in paragraph settings. The rounded corners and stout serifs give it a subtle ‘inked’ warmth without becoming decorative.
