A sturdy bracketed slab serif with broad, rectangular serifs that ease into stems through curved joins. Strokes are largely even with minimal contrast, producing a steady, text-forward rhythm and consistent color on the page. Counters are open and generously shaped, while terminals and joins feel slightly softened rather than sharp, giving the design a practical, printed feel. The lowercase shows compact, workmanlike forms and the numerals share the same robust, grounded construction.
Well-suited to editorial typography where a strong serif voice is needed for headings and subheads, and it can also hold together in longer-form reading at comfortable text sizes. Its sturdy slabs make it effective for posters, packaging, and identity work that benefits from a reliable, established tone.
The overall tone is classic and dependable, with a warm, old-style seriousness that feels rooted in print. Its slabs convey solidity and authority without becoming harsh, making it feel familiar and editorial rather than decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, legible slab serif with softened, bracketed details—balancing strong presence in headings with steady readability in continuous text.
At display sizes the chunky serifs and bracketed transitions become a defining feature, while in paragraphs the even stroke weight helps maintain stable texture and clear word shapes. The silhouette reads as traditional and sturdy, with a slightly vintage, press-like flavor.
