A crisp serif with bracketed terminals and clearly modulated strokes, showing strong thick–thin contrast and a steady, upright axis. Curves are smoothly drawn with rounded joins, while serifs remain sharp and neatly integrated, giving the letterforms a polished, print-like finish. Proportions feel traditional: moderate x-height, relatively tall ascenders, and balanced capitals, with comfortable, even spacing that supports continuous reading. Numerals follow the same contrast and serif logic, with sturdy verticals and clean, open counters.
Well-suited to long-form text such as books, essays, and magazine articles where a familiar serif texture and strong stroke modulation aid readability. It also fits formal documents, institutional communications, and report typography where a traditional, credible voice is desired.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, suggesting editorial tradition and institutional formality. Its high contrast and tidy detailing convey refinement and authority, while the warm, slightly calligraphic modulation keeps it from feeling mechanical.
The design appears intended to provide a dependable, traditional text serif with refined contrast and careful serif integration, optimized for clear paragraph color and familiar literary tone.
The italic is not shown; the presented style reads as a conventional roman suitable for long-form composition. The glyph set shown maintains consistent stroke rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, producing a cohesive texture in paragraphs.
