A sturdy slab-serif with broad proportions and clear, confident letterforms. Serifs are heavy and mostly squared off, with subtle bracketing that softens joins into the stems. Strokes show a noticeable but restrained contrast, and terminals read clean and blunt rather than calligraphic. Counters are generous and open, producing an even texture in paragraphs, while curves (C, O, G) stay round and controlled against the strong verticals.
This font fits well in long-form reading contexts such as books, articles, and reports where a firm serif presence helps guide the eye. It also works for headlines and subheads in editorial layouts that benefit from a classic slab-serif voice and strong typographic hierarchy.
The overall tone is traditional and dependable, with an editorial seriousness that feels suited to print-centric typography. Its bold serifs and steady rhythm give it an authoritative, slightly bookish voice—more pragmatic than decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver robust readability with a traditional slab-serif character—combining strong, square serifs and controlled contrast to create a dependable text face with enough presence for display use when set large.
Uppercase forms feel structured and formal, while the lowercase maintains clarity with straightforward shapes and stable spacing. Numerals are sturdy and highly legible, matching the same slabbed finishing and consistent weight distribution seen in the letters.
