A delicate slab-serif with low contrast and lightly bracketed, softly rounded serifs. Strokes stay even and crisp, with gentle curves and restrained terminals that avoid sharp, spiky finishes. Proportions are compact and neat, with modest counters and a calm rhythm; rounded forms like O and Q feel smooth and slightly condensed, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) remain clean and symmetrical. Numerals follow the same understated structure, with open, readable shapes and minimal embellishment.
Works well for editorial typography such as book interiors, magazine text, and article layouts where a gentle serif presence is desired. It can also serve effectively for captions, pull quotes, and interface copy that benefits from a traditional yet unobtrusive slab-serif texture.
The overall tone is quiet and literary, evoking traditional print typography without feeling heavy or ornate. Its soft serifs and controlled geometry give it a composed, polite voice suited to informative and editorial settings.
Likely intended to provide a readable, classic slab-serif texture in a light, refined voice. The softened serifs and steady stroke treatment suggest a focus on smooth reading rhythm and a calm, print-like appearance across text and numerals.
The design maintains consistent serif treatment across uppercase and lowercase, with a noticeably restrained lowercase that reads compactly in running text. Punctuation and the ampersand appear simple and text-oriented, supporting continuous reading rather than display flair.
