A robust slab-serif with broad, square-shouldered serifs and subtly bracketed joins that soften the otherwise blocky construction. Strokes are generally even, with moderate contrast and firm vertical stress, producing strong, dark word shapes. Terminals frequently finish in flat cuts, while select letters introduce rounded or teardrop details (notably the lowercases), adding a slightly inked, oldstyle flavor. Proportions are roomy and readable, with steady sidebearings and a consistent, print-oriented rhythm across caps, lowercase, and figures.
This face is well suited to headlines and subheads where a strong slab presence helps establish hierarchy, and it also performs convincingly in short-to-medium text passages thanks to its steady rhythm and open counters. It can anchor branding systems that want a traditional, trustworthy voice, and it scales effectively for posters and cover typography where bold, stable letterforms are beneficial.
The overall tone feels sturdy and dependable, with an editorial seriousness that recalls printed headlines and book typography. Its slab structure reads confident and institutional, while the occasional rounded terminals keep it from feeling purely mechanical.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic slab-serif authority with print-friendly sturdiness, balancing square, emphatic serifs with small rounded details to maintain warmth and legibility in real-world setting.
The uppercase set presents a relatively formal, authoritative stance, and the lowercase introduces more personality through rounded bowls and ball-like terminals. Figures are clear and weighty, designed to hold their own in text or display without becoming spindly.
