A robust serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and strongly bracketed serifs. The letterforms are upright and generous in width, with a steady baseline and clear, open counters. Serifs tend toward beaked and wedge-like endings, while many curves finish in soft, rounded terminals, giving the heavy strokes a slightly cushioned feel rather than a sharp, engraved look. The overall rhythm is even and stable, with sturdy verticals, rounded bowls, and a confident, print-oriented presence across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium runs of text where a strong serif voice is desired—magazine titles, editorial sections, book covers, event posters, and premium packaging. It can also support pull quotes and section heads where clarity and authority matter.
The tone is classic and authoritative, evoking traditional publishing and academic or institutional typography. Its weight and contrast read as confident and assertive, while the rounded terminals add a touch of warmth that keeps it from feeling overly severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif structure with heightened presence—combining classic proportions and bracketed serifs with weighty strokes and lively contrast for impactful, legible typography.
In the sample text, the face holds together well at display sizes, where the contrast, bracketed serifs, and rounded terminals become distinctive. Numerals appear bold and compact with clear silhouettes, and the uppercase has a stately, headline-ready feel.
