A conventional serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and clear thick–thin modulation. The capitals are sturdy and slightly broad, with confident vertical stress and clean, well-defined joins. Lowercase forms read smoothly with a moderate x-height and rounded counters, while details like the two-storey “a” and “g” and the compact, beaked terminals reinforce a traditional text face structure. Numerals are lining and proportioned to sit comfortably alongside capitals, with balanced curves and firm serifs where applicable.
Well-suited to body text in books, long-form editorial, and print-forward layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also serve headings and subheads in magazines, reports, and institutional materials when a traditional, authoritative voice is appropriate.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, with a slightly assertive, editorial presence. Its contrast and crisp serifs lend a sense of authority and care, suggesting bookish refinement rather than overt ornament. The rhythm feels measured and familiar, suited to contexts where credibility and clarity matter.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional text serif that balances crisp contrast with familiar proportions for comfortable reading. Its emphasis is on clarity and typographic tradition, offering a polished, editorially appropriate voice.
In text, the contrast remains controlled and the spacing looks even, supporting continuous reading. The serif treatment is consistent across the alphabet, and the shapes maintain a stable, upright posture with a clean baseline and a restrained, classic texture.
