A refined text serif with pronounced contrast between thick stems and hairline strokes, using sharply tapered, bracketed serifs. The forms are upright with a steady vertical rhythm, narrow joins, and crisp terminals that stay clean at display sizes. Capitals feel stately and proportioned, while the lowercase shows a relatively tall x-height and compact counters that keep paragraphs dense yet controlled. Curves in letters like C, G, O, and S show vertical stress and precise thinning at the extremes; numerals are similarly high-contrast with delicate serifs and a classic old-style sensibility in their shapes.
Well-suited for book interiors, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine typography where a classic serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively in refined branding, invitations, and headlines when set with generous leading to protect the hairline details.
The overall tone is traditional and polished, suggesting editorial authority and a bookish sophistication. Its sharp serifs and fine hairlines convey formality and a premium feel, while the taller x-height keeps it approachable for longer reading.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, high-contrast reading serif that balances classic proportions with a taller lowercase for clarity in text. Its disciplined serifs and restrained detailing aim for timelessness rather than stylistic novelty.
Spacing appears measured and even in the sample text, supporting continuous reading with a consistent baseline and calm texture. The italic is not shown; all examples present a roman style with controlled, slightly condensed letterforms and minimal flourish.
