A sturdy slab-serif with broad proportions and a low-contrast, even stroke weight. Serifs are heavy and mostly square-ended with slight bracketing, giving joins a firm, grounded look. Curves are controlled and somewhat rectilinear, while horizontals and verticals read solid and consistent; counters are open and the overall color is dark but steady. The lowercase shows a straightforward, workmanlike rhythm, and the numerals match the same robust, planted stance.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, and pull quotes where a firm, legible slab-serif voice is needed. It also fits editorial layouts, book or magazine titling, posters, and branding systems that want a classic, dependable presence.
The font conveys a dependable, no-nonsense tone with a traditional editorial flavor. Its bold slab details add authority and clarity, suggesting practicality and confidence rather than delicacy or flair.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust slab-serif for clear, confident communication, pairing wide proportions with strong, square serifs to create an anchored, print-forward texture.
In text, the strong serifs and wide letterforms create a pronounced horizontal rhythm and a classic page-like presence. The shapes feel slightly condensed in their internal spaces relative to the heavy terminals, which reinforces a sturdy, print-oriented texture at larger sizes.
