A robust slab-serif with pronounced rectangular terminals and a compact, blocky silhouette. Strokes are thick and largely even, with subtle contrast and strongly bracketed joins that keep counters open and forms steady at display sizes. The overall rhythm is broad and grounded, with generous width, firm horizontals, and a consistent, deliberate texture across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Well suited to headlines, posters, packaging, and branding that need a strong, trustworthy voice. It also fits editorial display roles such as section heads, pull quotes, and mastheads where a classic slab-serif presence helps structure the page. In short lines and prominent labels, the wide stance and heavy serifs can create an authoritative, attention-holding typographic anchor.
This typeface projects a confident, assertive tone with a sturdy, workmanlike feel. Its heavy presence and solid serifs give it a traditional, slightly editorial voice that reads as dependable and no-nonsense rather than delicate or playful.
The design appears aimed at delivering high-impact reading with a firm, stable typographic color. It balances strong slabs and broad proportions to remain clear and recognizable in large text, while keeping details restrained for consistent, repeatable setting across a range of words and figures.
The numerals and capitals carry a particularly solid, sign-like weight, and the lowercase maintains a consistent, sturdy texture with clear, rounded counters. Overall spacing and letterforms read as intentionally substantial, favoring impact and stability over delicacy.
