A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke contrast, and a steady, even rhythm in text. Capitals are tall and relatively narrow with crisp finishing and classical proportions, while the lowercase shows rounded bowls, open apertures, and a balanced x-height that reads comfortably at paragraph sizes. Curves are smooth and slightly modulated, with subtle stress rather than geometric uniformity; joins and terminals feel clean and deliberate. Numerals appear lining and proportionally aligned, with familiar, bookish forms that sit neatly alongside the letters.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts, where its steady rhythm and conventional forms support comfortable scanning. It can also serve institutional and corporate documents, reports, and academic materials that benefit from a formal, traditional serif voice.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, projecting an editorial and literary seriousness rather than overt personality. It feels like a dependable, established serif—appropriate for settings where clarity and credibility matter. The texture in running text is calm and measured, suggesting a print-oriented sensibility.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose text serif: familiar, readable, and typographically conservative, prioritizing dependable paragraph color and classical proportions over stylization.
Letterforms maintain consistent spacing and color across the sample text, with no exaggerated quirks; the design relies on proportion and restrained contrast for character. The italic is not shown, and the displayed set emphasizes a straightforward roman with classic detailing.
