A sculpted serif with gently flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that broaden into wedge-like terminals. The letterforms show moderate stroke contrast and a calm, upright axis, with broad, open counters and a tall x-height that keeps lowercase forms prominent. Curves are smooth and generously rounded (notably in C, O, and S), while joins and terminals have a subtly calligraphic, ink-trap-free finish that reads crisp at text sizes. Spacing appears even and bookish, with a steady rhythm across mixed-case and numerals.
Well suited to book interiors, magazine and newspaper-style editorial layouts, and other long-form text where a steady, readable texture is important. It also works effectively for refined branding, pull quotes, and headlines when a classic serif voice with a touch of flare is desired.
The overall tone feels editorial and literary—confident, traditional, and quietly refined. Its flared details add a subtle warmth and humanist character without becoming decorative, giving text a composed, authoritative voice suited to long-form reading.
The design appears intended to provide a dependable text serif with enhanced warmth and personality through flared terminals and sculpted serifs. Its proportions and open counters suggest an emphasis on readability and stable typographic color, balancing traditional forms with subtle contemporary refinement.
Uppercase forms are stately with ample interior space, and the lowercase maintains clarity through open apertures and sturdy stems. Numerals appear lining and well-proportioned, matching the text color and rhythm of the alphabet. The sample paragraph shows stable word shapes and consistent texture across lines, suggesting a design tuned for continuous reading.
