A sturdy serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and relatively generous proportions. Strokes are steady with moderate thick–thin differentiation, and curves are full and round, giving letters open counters and a calm rhythm. The lowercase shows a two-storey a and g, a compact ear on the g, and a relatively upright, even texture; capitals are broad-shouldered and strongly anchored by pronounced serifs. Numerals follow the same robust, traditional construction with rounded bowls and clear, book-oriented forms.
Works well for editorial typography such as books, long-form articles, and magazine layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. Its solid serifs and open counters also make it suitable for headlines, pull quotes, and formal branding applications that benefit from a classic, authoritative tone.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, with a formal, editorial presence. It feels dependable and traditional rather than trendy, projecting a scholarly, institutional character suited to reading and reference.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes familiar shapes, steady rhythm, and a dependable page color. Its bracketed serifs and moderate contrast suggest a focus on readability and a timeless editorial voice.
The design leans on strong horizontals and confident serif feet, which helps maintain stability at larger sizes. Letterforms keep a consistent, familiar rhythm across uppercase and lowercase, with round punctuation and a sturdy ampersand that matches the texty, conventional voice.
