A heavy serif with broad proportions and gently rounded, flared stroke endings that read as bracketed serifs rather than hard slabs. Stems are sturdy and somewhat sculpted, with subtle swelling into terminals and a moderate, even contrast that keeps the texture dark and steady in paragraphs. Counters are compact but not cramped, and curves (C, G, O, S) feel full and smoothly drawn, while joins and notches show small, purposeful cut-ins that add crispness at text sizes. The overall rhythm is assertive and stable, with a slightly soft, ink-friendly edge to many terminals.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium editorial settings where a dense, confident serif texture is desirable. It also fits packaging and branding that needs a traditional, established feel, and works well for posters or signage when a strong typographic anchor is needed.
The tone is classic and authoritative, evoking bookish, old-style seriousness with a touch of warmth. Its weight and rounded flare details give it a confident, traditional voice suited to institutional or heritage-leaning messaging without feeling overly delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, readable serif voice with softened flares and controlled contrast, balancing classic book typography cues with a sturdier, more contemporary mass for impactful setting. The flared terminals and compact counters suggest an emphasis on maintaining clarity and character in dark, high-ink applications.
Uppercase forms are robust and emphatic, with strong horizontals and clear serif presence; lowercase maintains a solid, readable color with a single-storey g and compact, sturdy shapes. Numerals are heavy and highly legible, matching the letterforms’ wide stance and reinforced terminals, which helps maintain consistency in mixed text and display settings.
