A sturdy slab-serif with prominent, squared serifs and subtly softened corners that keep the texture from feeling rigid. Strokes are broadly even with modest modulation, producing a dark, steady typographic color. Capitals are wide and stable, with open counters in C and G and a clear, slightly condensed inner space in B, D, and P. The lowercase shows a straightforward, workmanlike construction with sturdy stems, compact bowls, and a single-storey g; the overall rhythm is firm and consistent across text.
Well suited to headlines and subheads where strong serifs can anchor a layout, and it also holds up in short-to-medium text in print-style compositions. Its sturdy shapes make it effective for branding, packaging, and signage that benefit from a confident, traditional voice.
The font projects a dependable, no-nonsense tone with a classic print sensibility. Its heavy-footed serifs and solid proportions feel institutional and confident, suggesting authority without becoming ornate. The softened geometry adds approachability, giving it a familiar, editorial voice rather than a purely industrial one.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, dependable slab-serif texture optimized for clear readability and strong page presence. The consistent serif treatment and restrained modulation suggest an emphasis on practicality and versatility in editorial and display settings.
Numerals are weighty and highly legible, with simple, squared-off forms that match the letterfit and serif treatment. The design maintains consistent serif size and stroke endings across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, helping paragraphs hold together with a strong, even presence.
