This typeface presents a serifed, slightly slanted texture with gently swelling stems that flare into tapered terminals and small, softly bracketed serifs. Curves are broad and smooth, with open counters and a calm, even rhythm across lines. The lowercase shows a clear two-storey “a” and “g,” a modestly looping “y,” and a lightly curved “t,” while the capitals balance round forms (C, O, Q) against sturdy verticals with subtle modulation. Figures are straightforward and readable, with rounded bowls and understated finishing details that keep the overall color consistent in text.
Well-suited to editorial typography—magazines, longform articles, and book interiors—where a classic serif feel with a bit of movement is desired. The distinctive flared terminals also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and brand identities that want a traditional foundation with a softer, more personable edge.
The overall tone feels bookish and cultivated, pairing traditional serif cues with a relaxed, contemporary warmth. Its soft flaring and slight slant add a human, conversational character without becoming decorative, giving it a quietly confident, editorial voice.
The design appears intended to blend readability and familiarity with a subtle calligraphic liveliness, using flared stroke endings and gentle slant to create a recognizable texture. It aims for versatility across text and display roles while maintaining a refined, humanist sensibility.
The design leans on broad proportions and open shapes to maintain clarity at larger text sizes, while the flared endings add a distinctive signature in headings. Rounded joins and restrained contrast help it stay smooth and cohesive, especially in mixed-case settings.
