A serif typeface with subtly flared stroke endings and a moderate, readable contrast between thick and thin. The capitals are stately and open, with clean proportions and slightly tapered joins that suggest a calligraphic influence rather than purely geometric construction. Lowercase forms are steady and traditional, with round counters, bracketed-like flaring at terminals, and a clear rhythm in text. Numerals follow the same logic, mixing straight stems with gently swelling terminals for a cohesive texture.
Well suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture is desired. It can also work for magazine headlines, institutional or cultural branding, and packaging that benefits from a refined, traditional tone without looking overly ornate.
The overall tone is classic and literary, leaning toward traditional publishing and formal communication. Its flared details add a hint of warmth and hand-drawn heritage while keeping a composed, professional voice.
The design appears intended to deliver dependable, traditional readability with a mild calligraphic character, using flared terminals to add personality and a crafted finish while maintaining a restrained, text-friendly rhythm.
In paragraph settings the letterspacing and counters keep the color even and calm, while the flared endings create a slightly sculpted edge on verticals and diagonals. The design reads as conservative at a distance, with just enough stroke modulation and terminal shaping to feel distinctive up close.
