A conventional text serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a calm, even rhythm. Proportions are balanced and slightly organic, with subtly tapered terminals and a gently calligraphic stress visible in round letters. Counters are open and well-shaped, and the lowercase shows traditional detailing such as a two‑storey “g” and “a”, plus a softly curved “f” with a modest crossbar. Numerals appear oldstyle, sitting with varied heights and ascenders/descenders that blend naturally into running text.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts, where its steady texture and traditional detailing support comfortable paragraphs. It also works for classic headline settings, chapter titles, and institutional materials that benefit from a reserved, established voice.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting editorial seriousness rather than display drama. Its restrained contrast and familiar forms communicate trust, clarity, and a quietly refined presence.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif that prioritizes familiar letterforms and smooth reading flow, pairing a traditional palette of details with clean, contemporary consistency.
Capitals feel stately without being overly wide, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) keep sharp, clean joins. The serif shaping stays consistent across the set, lending a cohesive texture in paragraphs while maintaining crispness in headings.
