A crisp, high-contrast serif with bracketed wedges and tapered terminals that keep the stroke endings sharp and clean. Capitals are stately and slightly condensed in feel, with strong vertical stress and finely cut serifs that give a precise, print-like rhythm. Lowercase forms are compact and controlled, with a two-storey “a” and “g,” a narrow “e,” and relatively tight apertures that emphasize an even, text-oriented color. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven construction, mixing straight spines and curving bowls with neatly finished serifs for a consistent, traditional texture.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, journals, and magazine layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It also performs confidently in headlines, subheads, and pull quotes, bringing a formal, editorial character to page-based and digital publishing contexts.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with a distinctly editorial voice. Its sharp contrast and refined serifs convey seriousness and polish, reading as bookish, institutional, and suited to carefully composed typography rather than casual messaging.
The font appears designed to deliver a conventional, high-contrast text serif that feels rooted in print tradition. Its disciplined proportions and sharp finishing suggest an intention to balance elegance with readability for editorial and literary typography.
The design maintains consistent detailing across sizes in the sample text, producing a dense but orderly paragraph color. Curved letters (like C, G, O, Q) show smooth, controlled modulation, while diagonals (V, W, X, y) are crisp and energetic without becoming ornamental.
