A flared serif with gently swelling stems and tapered stroke endings, giving the letterforms a subtly calligraphic, drawn quality. Serifs are small and bracketed, with soft, angled terminals rather than sharp slabs, and curves transition smoothly into stems. The overall rhythm is spacious and steady, with broad proportions, open counters, and a slightly forward-leaning stance that adds motion without becoming cursive.
This style is well suited to editorial headlines and subheads, book covers, and brand identities that want a classical serif feel with a more animated, contemporary texture. It can also work for short-to-medium reading passages where a warm, low-contrast serif is desired, particularly in print and display-forward layouts.
The tone reads traditional and cultivated, with a warm, humanist energy from the flared endings and soft joins. It feels confident and bookish, suited to refined settings while still approachable and lively.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif structure with flared, calligraphic modulation, creating a readable but characterful texture. Its wide set and softened terminals suggest an emphasis on presence and elegance in display and editorial applications.
Uppercase forms appear sturdy and sculpted, while lowercase shapes keep the same flare-and-taper logic for a consistent texture in continuous text. Numerals share the same softened, slightly angled terminals, helping mixed text keep a unified color on the page.
