A robust slab-serif with heavy, square-cut serifs and firm, straight-sided stems. Strokes are thick and steady, with clear bracketless joins and flat terminals that emphasize a carved, blocklike silhouette. Counters are moderately open (notably in O, P, and e), while apertures tend toward the closed side, producing a compact, punchy texture. The uppercase feels wide and stable with prominent serifs; the lowercase is similarly weighty, with a single-storey a and g and short, sturdy extenders. Numerals match the overall heft, keeping a blunt, squared finish and strong vertical rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and display settings where its strong slabs and compact texture can carry authority. It also fits branding and packaging that want a sturdy, heritage-leaning voice, and editorial layouts that benefit from a confident, print-like presence.
The font conveys a dependable, no-nonsense tone with a distinctly print-forward presence. Its bold slabs and squared details evoke classic editorial and collegiate signals—authoritative, traditional, and slightly industrial—while remaining clean enough to feel contemporary rather than ornamental.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with minimal fuss: a solid slab-serif voice that reads instantly and holds up in bold statements. The squared terminals and heavy serifs prioritize structure and legibility, aiming for a classic, dependable look across display and short text applications.
At text sizes it creates a dark, emphatic color, with serifs that read as structural anchors and help track lines cleanly. The overall rhythm favors clarity and impact over delicacy, making it especially noticeable in headings and short bursts of copy.
