A sturdy serif with compact proportions and pronounced, bracketed serifs that often taper into wedge-like terminals. Strokes show clear thick–thin contrast, with verticals carrying most of the weight and joins kept crisp and controlled. Counters are generally tight and round forms are slightly squared by the heavy stress, giving the face a dense, emphatic color on the page. Numerals and capitals read strongly, with firm horizontals and confident serifed endings that hold up in large, bold settings.
Works best where a strong serif voice is needed—headline typography, magazine or newspaper-style display, and bold pull quotes. It can also suit packaging and branding that aim for a traditional, premium impression, especially in short to medium-length text at larger sizes where its compact counters remain clear.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, evoking classic print typography and editorial gravitas. Its heavy presence feels declarative and institutional, suited to messages that should read as established, serious, and confident rather than casual or playful.
Likely designed to deliver a classic serif presence with added punch: strong serifs, controlled contrast, and compact spacing combine to create a confident display face that still references traditional book and editorial typography.
The texture is dark and even, with short extenders and relatively compact internal space that emphasize impact over airiness. Round letters maintain a stable, grounded feel, while diagonal strokes (as in V/W/X/Y) remain sharp and clean, reinforcing a disciplined, formal rhythm.
