A conventional serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The letterforms show a relatively broad set width and an even, steady rhythm in text, with clear vertical stress and smooth curved joins. Terminals are mostly sharp and tapered, giving the contours a clean, cut-in feel, while counters remain open and well-shaped for continuous reading. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and firm, serifed stems.
Well-suited to book and long-form editorial typography, where its familiar serif structure and consistent rhythm support comfortable reading. It also performs effectively for magazine headlines, section heads, and institutional communications that benefit from a classic, authoritative voice.
The overall tone is traditional and editorial, conveying seriousness and polish. Its high-contrast detailing and tapered terminals lend a refined, slightly stately character suited to classic publishing aesthetics.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional text serif with elevated contrast and crisp finishing, balancing readability with a refined, print-classic appearance.
In the sample text, the strong contrast and crisp serifs create a clear typographic color with a slightly calligraphic edge, especially in round forms and diagonals. The design feels optimized for text settings where a familiar, book-oriented texture is desired, while still presenting enough sharpness for display-sized headings.
