A crisp slab-serif with bracketed, rectangular serifs and clear stroke modulation. The letterforms feel sturdy but not heavy, with open counters and a notably tall x-height that keeps lowercase forms prominent. Curves are controlled and slightly squared-off in places, while terminals and joins stay clean and consistent, giving the face a composed, text-first rhythm. Figures are straightforward and legible, matching the serif treatment and overall measured proportions.
Well-suited to body copy in editorial layouts, books, and long-form reading where a stable serif texture and clear word shapes are important. It can also work effectively for headings and pull quotes when a structured, traditional voice is desired without excessive weight.
The font conveys a classic, bookish tone with a steady, practical confidence. Its slab serifs add a touch of authority and structure, while the moderate contrast and open shapes keep the overall voice approachable rather than formal or ornate.
The design intent reads as a versatile slab-serif for comfortable reading: strong serifs for guidance along the line, open forms for clarity, and a balanced contrast level to maintain a refined, contemporary print texture.
Spacing appears even and calm in paragraph settings, supporting continuous reading. Uppercase forms are stately and clear, and the lowercase shows traditional, print-oriented construction with strong baseline presence.
