A slender, slightly condensed roman with gently tapered strokes and soft, calligraphic modulation rather than hard geometric construction. Terminals often finish with subtle flares and small, bracket-like transitions that hint at serif logic while remaining essentially clean and uncluttered. Curves are open and generous (notably in C/G/S), with a steady vertical rhythm and moderate spacing that keeps word shapes crisp. Uppercase forms feel stately and restrained; lowercase maintains clear differentiation with simple, readable joins and calm, even texture in text.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, long-form reading, and book or magazine typography where a refined, traditional voice is desired without overt ornament. It also works for understated branding, cultural materials, and formal stationery that benefit from a calm, literate tone.
The overall tone is literary and composed, with a traditional, slightly old-style sensibility translated into a pared-back, modern silhouette. It reads as polite and authoritative without feeling heavy, lending a quietly formal voice to headings and text alike.
The design appears intended to provide a clean, readable text face with a restrained classical influence—capturing some calligraphic warmth and traditional proportions while keeping the overall impression simple and contemporary.
Distinctive details—such as the angled leg on R, the compact bowls on B/P, and the straightforward, legible numerals—support clarity while preserving a subtle handcrafted feel. The family of shapes stays consistent across cases, producing a smooth, understated typographic color in paragraphs.
