A crisp serif with pronounced stroke contrast and finely tapered, bracketed serifs. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, with a relatively compact, disciplined rhythm and moderate apertures. Uppercase proportions feel classical and balanced, while the lowercase shows a compact texture with clear hairlines, a double-storey “g,” and a narrow, upright “t.” Numerals are lining and slender, with delicate terminals that match the text’s overall precision.
Well suited for long-form reading in books and essays, as well as magazine and newspaper-style editorial typography where a refined texture is desirable. It can also serve in formal branding, invitations, and headings that benefit from a classic, high-contrast serif voice.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, conveying literary seriousness and editorial refinement. Its sharp hairlines and poised serifs give it a formal, quietly luxurious presence without feeling ornamental.
Likely intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes a dignified reading experience and a classic printed-page aesthetic. The controlled contrast and bracketed serifs suggest a design aimed at dependable editorial work with an elevated, cultivated tone.
The design maintains consistent contrast and serif treatment across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a clean, continuous text color. The shapes lean toward a transitional feel, with sturdy verticals and restrained curvature that supports a composed, authoritative page.
