A delicate serif design with gently flared stroke endings and subtly bracketed terminals that give the forms a calligraphic, carved quality. Strokes stay clean and fairly even with modest contrast, while curves are smooth and open, producing generous counters in letters like C, O, and e. Proportions lean slightly wide and airy, with a measured rhythm and moderate spacing that supports comfortable reading. Details such as the angled, tapered arms (E, F, T) and the elegant diagonals (V, W, Y) reinforce a crafted, traditional construction without feeling overly ornate.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where an elegant text texture is desired. It can also serve in brand identities and packaging that benefit from a traditional, premium feel, and it holds up nicely for pull quotes and section headings when set with ample whitespace.
The overall tone is literary and composed, suggesting editorial polish and quiet sophistication. Its flared finishes and restrained contrast add a subtle humanist warmth, lending the type a classical, cultured voice suited to considered, text-forward communication.
The design appears intended to combine classical serif readability with a more hand-shaped finish, using flared terminals to add warmth and distinction while keeping the overall color light and restrained for continuous text.
The lowercase shows a clear, readable structure with steady stem weight and distinctive, gently swelling terminals that help define word shapes. Numerals appear lining and proportionate, matching the light, refined texture of the letters, with smooth curves on 2, 3, 5, and 9 and a balanced, open 0.
