A conventional text serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke contrast, and a steady, bookish rhythm. The capitals are proportionate and restrained, with slightly flared terminals and cleanly cut serifs that read well at text sizes. Lowercase forms show oldstyle influences: a double‑storey “g,” a gently angled crossbar on “e,” and a softly tapered, slightly calligraphic stress through rounded letters. Numerals are clear and evenly weighted, with the “0” oval and open counters throughout supporting comfortable continuous reading.
Well suited to book interiors, essays, journals, and other long-form editorial settings where a familiar serif texture and steady spacing support readability. It also fits academic and professional documents that benefit from a traditional, authoritative typographic tone.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone associated with traditional publishing and institutional typography. Its calm proportions and familiar detailing feel authoritative without becoming ornate, giving text a composed, trustworthy voice.
The design appears intended as a dependable general-purpose serif for continuous reading, emphasizing conventional forms, balanced contrast, and a measured typographic color over display-driven quirks.
Round letters like O/C/Q show a consistent axis and smooth curves, while diagonal forms (V/W/Y) keep a crisp, controlled join. The italic is not shown; the overall character is defined by upright, text-first shapes and conservative detailing.
