A serif typeface with a compact, slightly condensed footprint and clear, flared stroke endings that broaden into bracketed serifs. Strokes show moderate contrast and a calm, upright stance, with sharp joins and clean curves that keep counters open. Uppercase forms are stately and relatively narrow, while lowercase maintains a traditional rhythm with a two-storey a and g, tidy bowls, and compact apertures. Numerals are proportionate and text-friendly, aligning well with the overall vertical emphasis and restrained detailing.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and essays, as well as editorial layouts such as magazines and journals. Its narrow, upright proportions and crisp serifs also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and institutional or heritage-leaning branding where a traditional voice is desired.
The overall tone is classical and bookish, with a composed, editorial seriousness. Flared terminals add a subtle calligraphic warmth, balancing formality with a humanist touch. The impression is confident and traditional rather than trendy or decorative.
Likely designed to provide a classical reading face with a slightly condensed economy, using flared terminals and bracketed serifs to keep the texture lively while remaining disciplined on the page. The intention appears focused on dependable text performance with enough character for display accents in editorial contexts.
The design reads best when set with comfortable spacing, where the tapered-to-flared stroke behavior becomes more evident and the narrow proportions support dense text without feeling cramped. Capitals have a dignified presence for titling, while the lowercase carries a steady, even texture suitable for continuous reading.
