A sturdy slab-serif with squared, flat-ended serifs and gently bracketed joins that keep corners from feeling overly mechanical. Strokes are even and calm, with moderate curves and clear, open counters; curves terminate cleanly into straight stems. Capitals are well-proportioned and slightly narrow in feel, while the lowercase maintains a familiar text rhythm with a two-storey a and g and compact, upright forms. Numerals are simple and readable, with the 1 and 7 showing straightforward, linear construction and the 0 close to an oval.
Performs well in editorial and publishing contexts where a stable, readable slab serif is desired for long-form text. The firm serifs and clear shapes also suit headlines, subheads, and identity systems that need a traditional-yet-solid typographic voice.
The overall tone is composed and workmanlike, pairing a classic editorial sensibility with a firm, contemporary sturdiness. It reads as dependable and slightly formal, with enough warmth in the bracketed serifs to avoid a cold, purely industrial feel.
Likely intended as a practical slab serif for general-purpose reading, balancing robust structure with familiar text conventions. The controlled detailing suggests a focus on consistency, clarity, and a dependable page texture across sizes.
The design keeps details restrained—no exaggerated contrast or decorative terminals—so texture stays even across lines. Wide, stable serifs help anchor the baseline and add presence in headings while remaining comfortable in paragraph settings.
