A flared serif text face with gently swelling stems that broaden into wedge-like terminals, creating a subtly sculpted, ink-on-paper impression. The letterforms show moderate stroke modulation and a lively, slightly calligraphic rhythm, with open counters and readable proportions. Serifs are not rigid slabs; instead they taper and flare, and many curves finish with softly pointed, angled endings that add movement without becoming decorative. Numerals and capitals follow the same tapered-terminal logic, giving the set a cohesive, bookish color on the page.
Well suited to long-form reading such as books and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice and comfortable texture are desired. It can also serve effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and identity work that benefits from a refined, print-forward tone without the sharpness of high-contrast serifs.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, evoking traditional print typography with a warm, human touch. Its flared endings and moderate contrast lend a confident, slightly old-style character that feels literary and editorial rather than clinical or purely modern.
The design appears intended to merge readable, contemporary text proportions with historically informed flared terminals, producing a distinctive yet familiar serif for publishing and branding. The consistent wedge shaping across capitals, lowercase, and figures suggests an emphasis on cohesive page color and a quietly expressive typographic voice.
In text, the face maintains a steady texture while showing small variations in terminal angles that keep lines from looking mechanical. The italic is not shown; all samples appear upright, and the design’s personality comes primarily from the tapering strokes and wedge terminals rather than extreme contrast or ornate detailing.
