A sturdy serif with bracketed, slightly tapered terminals and a clear, measured rhythm. The letterforms balance moderate stroke contrast with firm verticals, producing a dark but controlled color in text. Counters are compact yet open enough for legibility, with rounded joins and gently flared serifs that read as traditional rather than sharp or geometric. Capitals feel proportionate and steady, while lowercase forms show conventional construction with a two-storey “g,” a compact “e,” and a straightforward, readable numeral set.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, journals, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It also fits academic and corporate documents, reports, and print-oriented branding that benefits from a conservative, established voice.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, evoking printed literature and institutional typography. It feels formal without becoming delicate, projecting reliability and tradition in both headings and continuous reading.
The design appears intended as a conventional, dependable text serif: familiar proportions, restrained contrast, and bracketed serifs aimed at comfortable reading and a timeless typographic tone.
In the sample paragraph, the texture remains consistent across lines, with serifed details holding up well at larger sizes and creating a confident, editorial presence. Numerals are clear and sturdy, matching the text weight and contributing to a stable typographic voice.
