A robust text serif with clearly bracketed serifs, sculpted joins, and a slightly condensed, compact rhythm. Strokes are confidently weighted with moderate contrast, and the curves show gentle swelling that softens the otherwise firm, blocky silhouettes. Serifs tend toward triangular/wedge-like feet and strong head serifs, while several letters show ball-like terminals and rounded endings that add warmth. The lowercase is steady and readable, with a single-storey “g” and sturdy, vertical stems; numerals include oldstyle forms that sit comfortably in running text.
Well-suited to book and long-form editorial settings where a strong serif voice is desired, as well as for magazine headlines and subheads that benefit from a dense, classic texture. It can also work effectively in branding and packaging when a traditional, authoritative impression is needed.
The overall tone is traditional and dependable, evoking classic book typography with an editorial authority. Its heavy color and sturdy details give it a serious, institutional feel, while the rounded terminals keep it from feeling overly severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, readable serif with a heavier color for strong presence in print-like compositions, pairing classic proportions with assertive bracketed serifs and softly rounded terminals for warmth.
At larger sizes the angular serif shapes and pronounced joins become a defining texture, giving headings a carved, print-like presence. In paragraphs it maintains a dark, even typographic color, with slightly narrow counters that reinforce its compact, emphatic voice.
