A very light slab serif with thin, even strokes and carefully bracketed, rectangular serifs that read clearly without feeling heavy. The curves are smooth and open, with a restrained, book-oriented rhythm and moderate spacing that keeps lines from looking dense at text sizes. Uppercase forms are classical and steady, while the lowercase shows a tidy, slightly contemporary finish with simple terminals, a single-storey “g,” and a clean, unforced italic-less stance. Numerals are slim and readable, mixing straight stems with gentle rounding for a consistent texture.
It suits editorial contexts such as magazines, book typography, and cultural or academic materials where a refined slab serif can add structure without visual weight. It can also work for premium branding and packaging when an understated, literate tone is desired, especially in larger sizes or with generous leading.
The overall tone is quiet and cultivated—more literary than loud—suggesting measured authority and a polished, editorial sensibility. Its lightness lends an elegant, understated voice suited to careful typography rather than bold display.
The design appears intended as a clean, dependable slab serif that prioritizes clarity and typographic polish, delivering a composed reading texture while keeping the serifs crisp and architectural.
In paragraph setting, the font maintains a crisp baseline and a smooth grayscale, with serifs doing most of the work of guiding the eye rather than strong stroke modulation. The punctuation and ampersand feel restrained and traditional, matching the type’s sober, print-like character.
