This serif typeface shows classic, bracketed serifs and gently modulated strokes that read as calm and even rather than high-contrast. Curves are broad and smooth with open counters, while joins and terminals suggest a subtle calligraphic influence. Proportions lean traditional, with a relatively small x-height against tall capitals and a steady rhythm in text. Overall spacing appears moderate, supporting comfortable word shapes and a stable, bookish texture.
Well-suited for long-form reading in books, editorial layouts, and magazine text where a familiar serif texture supports sustained legibility. It also fits academic and institutional materials—reports, essays, and formal correspondence—where a conventional, composed voice is desirable.
The font conveys a traditional, literary tone with an understated sense of authority. Its restrained detailing and familiar proportions feel appropriate for established institutions, print-oriented design, and content meant to read as trustworthy and composed.
The design intention appears to be a dependable, traditional text serif that prioritizes clarity and a balanced page color over display eccentricity. Its classic construction and restrained modulation aim for broad usability across body text and formal typographic settings.
Uppercase forms are stately and symmetrical, with rounded letters (C, O, Q) showing generous bowls and a clean, controlled finish. The lowercase includes distinctive oldstyle cues such as a two-storey “g” and a two-storey “a,” helping readability and giving the design a classic text-face character. Numerals appear straightforward and well-integrated with the surrounding letterforms, matching the same serifed, moderately rounded construction.
