A restrained serif with bracketed serifs and gently modulated stroke contrast. The proportions feel compact with relatively short lowercase bodies and clear ascender/descender reach, producing a steady, vertical rhythm. Terminals are softly tapered rather than abrupt, and curves are round and even, while joins and shoulders stay controlled and conventional. Uppercase forms are stately and slightly narrow, with clear internal counters and modestly pronounced serifs that read well at text sizes.
Well suited to extended reading in books, magazines, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture is desirable. It can also support reports, academic material, and other print-forward typography that benefits from a composed, traditional tone.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, evoking editorial typography and classic print settings. Its measured contrast and calm detailing give it a formal, literary voice without looking overly ornate or theatrical.
Likely designed to provide a dependable, conventional text serif with classic proportions and understated contrast, prioritizing comfortable rhythm and broad typographic utility over distinctive display eccentricities.
Figures appear lining and evenly weighted, with open shapes in 0 and 8 and a straightforward 1. The lowercase shows a two-storey a and g, a compact e with a clear eye, and a t with a simple crossbar, reinforcing a conventional text-serif palette.
