A traditional serif with bracketed wedge serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, bookish rhythm. The letterforms show slightly softened joins and subtly calligraphic shaping, with open counters and clear internal space that keeps paragraphs from feeling dense. Uppercase proportions are balanced and dignified, while the lowercase has familiar text-face construction with sturdy verticals and gently tapered terminals. Numerals appear oldstyle (varying heights and alignments), reinforcing an editorial, literature-oriented feel.
Well-suited to book typography, essays, and magazine layouts where a familiar serif texture and durable readability are desired. It also fits institutional or heritage-leaning branding, packaging, and display copy when set at larger sizes, especially when paired with its oldstyle numerals for a more classical typographic color.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, suggesting printed books, institutions, and long-form reading. It feels confident and established rather than trendy, with a calm formality that supports serious content.
The design appears intended as a dependable conventional text serif that balances tradition with clarity, offering a stable paragraph color and authoritative voice for editorial and publishing contexts.
Details like the strong, bracketed serifs and slightly angled stress give the design a traditional texture on the page. The italic is not shown, but the roman’s shaping and spacing suggest it is tuned for continuous text and comfortable reading at moderate sizes.
