A refined serif with slender strokes and clear thick–thin modulation. Serifs are bracketed and relatively delicate, with sharp terminals and a clean, high-contrast feel at display sizes while still reading as a text face. Capitals are proportioned traditionally with generous counters and a restrained, symmetrical construction; round letters stay smooth and open, and the overall rhythm is even. Lowercase forms are compact and tidy, with a two-storey “g,” a narrow, straightforward “r,” and a distinctly serifed “t,” all contributing to a controlled, editorial texture.
Well-suited to book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also serve effectively in magazines, academic materials, and formal communications, and scales up cleanly for refined headings and pull quotes.
The tone is classical and literary, evoking traditional book typography and institutional print. It feels measured and cultivated rather than expressive, with a quiet elegance that supports long-form reading and formal messaging.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readerly serif that balances elegance with clarity. Its moderated contrast, bracketed serifs, and steady proportions suggest an aim toward dependable text setting with a subtly elevated, classical finish.
Numerals appear lining and modern in their proportions, with crisp curves and light finishing details that match the text serifs. The sample text shows consistent spacing and a calm color on the page, with the finest strokes becoming more prominent as size increases.
