A traditional serif with compact proportions and a slightly calligraphic, oldstyle construction. Strokes show moderate contrast with gently modulated curves and bracketed, tapered serifs rather than slabs. Capitals are tall and tidy with restrained detailing, while the lowercase has a compact x-height and flowing bowls. Terminals often finish with subtle flares, and the overall rhythm is even and readable, with a slightly condensed feel in text.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, journals, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It also works for headings, pull quotes, and institutional or literary branding that benefits from a traditional, print-oriented voice.
The tone is classic and bookish, suggesting printed literature and editorial tradition. Its tapered serifs and modest stroke modulation add a refined, slightly humanist warmth without becoming decorative. Overall it reads as formal and cultivated, suited to content meant to feel established and trustworthy.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that balances readability with classic typographic cues. Its compact lowercase and tapered serifs aim to produce a steady, dignified page color appropriate for sustained reading and formal publishing contexts.
Distinctive details include the tapered, lightly flared serifs and the compact lowercase that gives lines a crisp, vertical texture. Numerals match the texty character, with traditional curves and moderate contrast that blends well in running copy. The design remains conservative in silhouette, prioritizing clarity and consistent color over display personality.
