This serif presents sturdy, strongly bracketed serifs with a pronounced thick–thin rhythm and crisp, clean joins. Uppercase forms are broad and steady, with generous internal counters and a firm horizontal emphasis in letters like E, F, and T. Lowercase shows compact, readable shapes with a traditional two-storey a and g, a ball terminal on j, and a right-leaning, gently calligraphic stress that keeps the texture lively without becoming ornate. Numerals are weighty and clear, with open bowls and confident curves that match the letterforms’ dark, even color.
It suits bold editorial headlines, book and journal titling, and display-forward layouts that benefit from a traditional serif voice. In branding and institutional materials, it can convey stability and heritage, especially when set at medium-to-large sizes where the contrast and serif shaping read cleanly.
The overall tone is classic and serious, evoking editorial and institutional typography. Its weight and contrast give it a confident, declarative voice, while the bracketed serifs and old-style construction add a familiar, bookish warmth.
The design appears intended as a conventional, text-rooted serif adapted for strong presence: traditional proportions and bracketed serifs paired with enough contrast and weight to perform confidently in prominent, attention-leading settings.
Across the set, the spacing and proportions create a dense, assertive paragraph color that holds together well in larger text settings. The design favors clarity and stability over delicacy, with consistent serif treatment and a restrained, conventional character.
