This typeface presents an old-style serif structure with subtly flared stroke endings and gently tapered terminals. Strokes show a clear, moderate thick–thin rhythm that reads as calligraphically informed rather than rigidly geometric. Serifs are small and bracketed, with a soft, sculpted transition into stems; curves are generously rounded and counters stay open, supporting steady readability. The overall texture in paragraphs is even and calm, with proportional spacing and a slightly organic, hand-shaped feel across capitals, lowercase, and figures.
It is well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts, where the open counters and moderated contrast maintain comfort at text sizes. The refined capitals also make it a strong choice for titles, pull quotes, cultural branding, and formal printed materials such as programs or invitations.
The tone is bookish and cultivated, balancing traditional formality with a hint of warmth from the flared, tapered endings. It evokes classic printing and editorial typography—polished and trustworthy without feeling overly austere.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif reading experience with added personality through flared, tapering terminals. It aims for a timeless, print-oriented voice that remains legible in continuous text while offering enough nuance for display moments.
Capitals appear stately with restrained detailing, while lowercase maintains a smooth rhythm and clear differentiation between similar shapes. Numerals follow the same serifed, tapered logic, contributing to a cohesive, text-forward palette.
