A robust serif with bracketed, gently flared terminals and clearly modeled strokes. The letterforms have a substantial color on the page, with moderate stroke modulation and rounded joins that soften the heavy weight. Proportions skew broad with ample counters, and the curves (C, G, S, O) feel full and steady rather than razor-sharp. Uppercase forms are stately and conventional; lowercase shows a two-storey a and g, short-to-moderate ascenders, and firm, slightly curved entry/exit strokes that keep texture even in dense setting. Numerals are sturdy and readable, matching the serif treatment and overall rhythmic consistency.
Well suited to headlines, pull quotes, and editorial titling where a strong, traditional serif presence is desired. It also fits book-cover typography and brand wordmarks that need a classic, authoritative feel, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the modeling and serifs read cleanly.
The tone is classic and institutional, evoking book typography and editorial seriousness. Its weight and broad proportions give it an assertive, dependable voice that reads as formal and established rather than delicate or whimsical.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-impact serif for readable, confident typography—bringing classic book-serif cues into a heavier, more attention-holding texture for modern editorial and display use.
In the text sample, the heavy serifs and generous interior space help maintain clarity at large sizes, while the overall color remains quite dark and emphatic. The design prioritizes steadiness and legibility through conventional shapes and consistent spacing rather than display eccentricities.
