A sturdy text serif with bracketed serifs, softened corners, and a slightly calligraphic, oldstyle influence in the curves. Strokes are solid and even with moderate modulation, giving counters a round, open feel while keeping a compact, robust color on the page. Serifs are clearly defined and gently cupped rather than sharp, and terminals often finish with subtle ball-like or flared touches. The lowercase shows a comfortable rhythm with a two-storey a and g and a generally generous, readable structure.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, magazines, and editorial layouts where a sturdy serif texture is desirable. It can also support academic or institutional materials, reports, and headings that benefit from a traditional, trustworthy voice without feeling overly rigid.
The overall tone feels traditional and literary, with a friendly warmth that reads as human and approachable rather than coldly formal. Its weight and rounded detailing add a dependable, slightly vintage character suited to editorial and institutional contexts.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes comfortable readability and a familiar typographic voice, while adding warmth through rounded joins, bracketed serifs, and subtly lively terminals.
Capitals are broad and stable with prominent serifs and smooth inner curves, while the numerals appear sturdy and clear at text sizes. The design maintains a consistent, dark text color, making it feel confident and grounded in running copy as well as in short display lines.
