A high-contrast roman with gently bracketed serifs and softly tapered stroke endings. The curves show a subtle, calligraphic stress, while straights remain clean and crisp, creating a polished rhythm on the line. Capitals are broad and steady with restrained modulation, and the lowercase keeps open counters and clear apertures for readability. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven logic, mixing sturdy stems with rounded bowls and compact joins for an even, text-friendly color.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and long-form articles where contrast and open shapes help maintain a refined yet readable texture. It can also support brand systems and packaging that want a classic, premium voice without feeling overly formal.
The overall tone feels editorial and composed, balancing classic bookish cues with a slightly modern smoothness. It reads as confident and cultivated rather than ornate, with a warm clarity that suits longer passages as well as prominent display settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary serif reading experience: traditional proportions and contrast, tempered by softened details and clean construction to keep text comfortable and versatile across sizes.
Several glyphs show intentionally soft, rounded terminals and modestly asymmetric curves that add liveliness without breaking consistency. The punctuation and figures visually match the letterforms, preserving the same contrast and finish across mixed text.
