This serif has bracketed, slightly tapered serifs and moderate stroke modulation, with smooth transitions into stems that give it a traditional, bookish texture. Capitals are sturdy and evenly proportioned with clear, open counters and restrained detailing. The lowercase shows an oldstyle flavor—noticeable in the two-storey “a,” the open “e,” and the gently curved, slightly diagonal stress in rounded letters—while maintaining a clean, consistent rhythm across words. Numerals sit comfortably alongside the letters with familiar, readable forms and no gimmicky construction.
It performs well for continuous reading in books, long-form editorial layouts, and publication typography where consistency and legibility are priorities. It also fits formal documents, reports, and institutional communications that call for a conventional, time-tested serif presence.
The overall tone is classic and composed, with a distinctly editorial and academic voice. It reads as trustworthy and established rather than trendy, suited to content that benefits from a sense of tradition and authority.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif that blends classic construction with restrained contrast for comfortable reading. Its shapes prioritize clarity and familiar forms, aiming for an unobtrusive but confident typographic voice.
In text, the font maintains a steady, even color with clear word shapes and balanced spacing, helping long passages feel stable and easy to track. The serifs are present enough to guide the eye on a line, but not so heavy that they dominate the page.
