A conventional serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Curves are smooth and tensioned, with neatly tapered terminals and fine hairlines that stay consistent across the set. Proportions feel balanced and text-oriented: capitals are stately without being condensed, lowercase forms are compact and readable, and spacing supports an even, measured rhythm. Numerals follow the same calligraphic contrast, with open counters and clean joins that keep figures clear at display sizes.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for magazine typography, academic material, and refined headlines or chapter titles that benefit from crisp contrast and a measured rhythm.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, evoking book typography and established editorial design. Its sharp hairlines and controlled contrast add a sense of refinement and authority, giving text a composed, formal presence.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose, classic text serif: prioritizing legibility and typographic color while retaining enough contrast and finesse for high-end editorial and literary presentation.
The uppercase shows classical construction with stable verticals and carefully shaped bowls, while the lowercase maintains a calm cadence with clear apertures and modest extenders. The italics are not shown; all samples presented read as upright roman forms.
