A crisp, conventional serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and bracketed wedge serifs. The letterforms show a steady vertical stress, generous sidebearings, and open counters that keep shapes clear at text sizes. Capitals are stately and slightly wide with sharp terminals, while lowercase features a two-storey a and g and a compact, rounded rhythm with moderate ascenders and descenders. Numerals are lining and proportionally spaced, matching the serifed, high-contrast texture of the text.
Well suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and literary or academic publishing, where its open shapes and traditional proportions support comfortable scanning. It also works effectively for magazine typography, reports, and brand systems that need a classic, dependable serif voice for headings and subheads.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, with an editorial, bookish confidence. Its sharp serifs and controlled contrast lend a sense of formality and authority without becoming overly decorative.
This design appears intended as a versatile, conventional text serif that balances readability with a polished, classical finish. The emphasis on high contrast and well-defined serifs suggests a focus on producing an elegant page texture for both display and body copy.
In continuous text the face creates a clean, even color with noticeable sparkle from the contrast and pointed serifs. Curves are smooth and well-contained, and joins are neatly bracketed, giving the design a refined, print-oriented feel.
