A robust serif with substantial stems, crisp wedge-like serifs, and clear modulation between thick and thin strokes. Serifs are generally bracketed, giving joins a softened, carved feel rather than a mechanical slab look. Uppercase forms are broad and steady, while lowercase shows round, open counters and noticeable ball/teardrop terminals in places (notably on letters like a, c, f), adding warmth to the otherwise forceful color. Numerals are heavy and compact with strong curves and a clear, print-oriented silhouette.
Well suited to headlines, pull quotes, and poster-style typography where a dense, authoritative texture is desirable. It can also serve editorial and book-cover settings that benefit from traditional serif cues and high-impact letterforms, especially at larger sizes where the terminals and bracketing become clear.
The overall tone is confident and classic, with a newspaper/editorial authority and a slightly old-style warmth from the rounded terminals. Its strong presence reads as emphatic and formal, suited to messaging that wants to feel established and consequential rather than minimal or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading experience with elevated impact—combining classic proportions and serifs with heightened weight and contrast for strong display presence. The rounded terminals suggest an effort to keep the texture approachable and lively rather than purely austere.
Spacing and fit appear designed to create an even, dark texture in blocks of text, with wide capitals and sturdy lowercase shapes that hold up at display sizes. The distinctive terminal treatment introduces a subtle humanist softness that balances the font’s strong contrast and weight.
