This serif face has a wide, relaxed stance with gently flared stroke endings that read as soft, tapered serifs rather than blunt slabs. Strokes are smooth and even, with subtle modulation and rounded joins that give curves (C, O, e, c) a clean, polished continuity. The lowercase shows open apertures and generous counters, while the capitals feel stately and slightly expansive, maintaining an even rhythm across lines. Numerals follow the same elegant, softly bracketed logic, with rounded bowls and restrained terminals.
It works well for editorial typography where a composed, upscale texture is desired, including book interiors, magazine features, and pull quotes. The wide capitals and distinctive flared endings also make it effective for branding, titling, and larger-size headlines where its graceful terminals can be appreciated.
The overall tone is refined and calm, with a lightly classical, literary feel. Its wide proportions and soft flaring create an unhurried, editorial voice—more elegant than assertive—suited to measured, polished typography.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif familiarity with a more spacious, modern proportion and subtly calligraphic flaring. It aims for clarity and comfort in continuous reading while offering enough character at terminals to stand out in display settings.
Spacing appears generous, contributing to a smooth text color in the sample setting. The forms balance crispness with a gentle softness at terminals, which helps the design feel contemporary-classic rather than strictly historical.
