A sturdy slab-serif with a consistent, modest rightward slant and broadly even stroke weight. Serifs are heavy and mostly bracketed, with squared-off feet and softened joins that keep the texture smooth rather than harsh. Curves are round and open, counters are generous, and spacing reads comfortable, producing an even paragraph color. Several strokes show small notches and angled cuts where stems meet serifs, adding a subtly crafted, print-like flavor without disrupting overall regularity.
Well-suited to editorial typography where a solid, readable slab texture is desired—magazine text, book interiors, and long-form reading at moderate sizes. The sturdy serifs and even color also make it a good fit for headlines, pull quotes, and brand or packaging systems that want a classic, trustworthy slab-serif voice.
The tone is dependable and traditional, with a slightly personable, human touch from the slant and softened details. It feels editorial and bookish—confident and readable rather than flashy—suggesting a pragmatic voice with a hint of vintage charm.
The design appears intended as a no-nonsense slab serif for general-purpose typesetting, combining robust serifs and even color with a restrained italic slant to add energy and emphasis while staying comfortably readable.
Uppercase forms are stable and clear, while the lowercase keeps a lively rhythm through the italic construction and compact, sturdy serifs. Numerals match the text style with the same grounded slabs and straightforward shapes, maintaining consistency for mixed alphanumeric settings.
