A classic text serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and an organic, slightly calligraphic skeleton. The capitals are stately with wide, rounded bowls (C, G, O, Q) and crisp, tapered serifs, while the lowercase keeps a steady rhythm with open apertures and sturdy stems. Curves show a gentle diagonal stress, and details like the ear on “g,” the angled terminals, and the slightly flared joins add warmth without becoming decorative. Numerals are lining-style and proportionally varied, matching the text color and maintaining clear differentiation between forms.
Well-suited for long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture is desired. It also works for formal communication materials such as reports and invitations, and for branding that benefits from a traditional, established tone.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, leaning toward an editorial voice that feels established and trustworthy. Its moderate contrast and softly shaped serifs keep it approachable, while the refined proportions and formal capitals give it a dignified, literary character.
The font appears intended as a dependable, conventional text serif that prioritizes comfortable reading and a timeless presence. Its detailing suggests an aim to combine classic book typography cues with clean, contemporary consistency across the alphabet and numerals.
The design maintains an even text color in paragraph settings, with noticeable but controlled modulation that helps readability. The italic is not shown; all samples appear roman.
