A sturdy slab-serif with square, flat-ended serifs and largely even stroke weight. The letterforms are upright with a calm, regular rhythm, showing moderate bracket-like transitions where stems meet serifs and bowls. Counters are generally open and the proportions feel traditional, with straightforward, readable shapes across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. Overall spacing reads balanced and text color is steady without sharp contrast effects.
Well-suited to body copy where a stable, readable texture is needed, such as books, essays, reports, and editorial layouts. The strong slab serifs also support headings, captions, and tabular or data-adjacent content where clarity and a firm typographic voice are beneficial.
The font conveys a classic, bookish tone with an institutional, trustworthy feel. Its firm slabs and restrained detailing suggest seriousness and clarity rather than flourish, making it feel dependable and conventional in longer reading settings.
Designed to provide a practical slab-serif reading face with a steady typographic color and unembellished construction. The emphasis appears to be on durability, clarity, and a familiar print-oriented feel that holds up across continuous text and mixed alphanumeric content.
The lowercase shows a traditional structure with a single-storey “g” and a compact, utilitarian “t,” while capitals keep broad, stable silhouettes. Numerals appear sturdy and straightforward, aligning with the same squared serif language for consistent texture in mixed text and data.
