A sturdy slab-serif with squared, flat-ended terminals and heavy, blocklike serifs that read clearly at text sizes. Strokes stay fairly even, with only modest modulation, and the overall rhythm is steady and compact. The serifs are mostly blunt and rectangular, with subtle bracketing on some joins, giving counters a slightly “inked” texture without becoming distressed. Uppercase forms feel upright and firm, while the lowercase shows practical, straightforward constructions and a readable, workhorse texture in paragraphs.
It suits editorial typography where a firm, traditional slab presence is desired, performing well in body copy and subheads with consistent texture. The bold, squared serifs also make it effective for headlines, posters, and packaging where clarity and impact matter.
The tone is practical and matter-of-fact, with a retro editorial flavor reminiscent of newspaper or institutional printing. Its chunky serifs and stable proportions give it an authoritative, no-nonsense voice that feels dependable rather than delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a reliable slab-serif voice with strong structure and clear letterforms, prioritizing readability and a solid typographic color across paragraphs while keeping a distinctly squared, print-forward character.
The figures are robust and legible, with clear silhouettes and strong baseline anchoring. The sample text shows a dense, even color and good word-shape clarity, especially in mixed-case settings.
