This serif presents a traditional text-face structure with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and clearly modulated strokes. Curves are smoothly drawn with a slightly calligraphic feel, while verticals read firm and steady, creating a balanced rhythm across lines. The capitals are stately with moderate proportions and crisp terminals, and the lowercase shows rounded bowls, a two-storey “a,” and a gently angled “e” crossbar that support fluent reading. Numerals are proportionate and sturdy, with the “3” and “5” showing pronounced, sculpted curves and the “7” featuring a clean, tapered top stroke.
Well-suited to book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice and comfortable paragraph texture are needed. It can also serve formal communication—reports, programs, and institutional materials—where a dependable, established tone is desirable.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, evoking book typography, established institutions, and long-form reading. Its sharp detailing and controlled contrast lend a refined, confident voice that feels more traditional than contemporary.
The font appears intended as a conventional, highly readable serif for continuous text, combining classical letterforms with crisp, modern drawing for reliable performance in paragraphs and headlines alike.
The design maintains strong internal consistency between round and straight forms, with careful bracket transitions at the serifs and restrained, clean joins. In text, spacing appears even and the color stays stable, producing a composed, slightly formal texture.
