A text-oriented serif with bracketed, gently flared serifs and a moderate stroke contrast. The letterforms show a slight oldstyle influence in their proportions and shaping, with rounded joins, tapered strokes, and open, readable counters. Curves are smooth and generous (notably in C, O, and G), while verticals remain steady, giving an even rhythm in paragraphs. Numerals and capitals feel well-balanced and sturdy, with traditional detailing in the terminals and cross-strokes.
Well-suited to body text in books, journals, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture supports sustained reading. It also fits reports, academic materials, and other formal communications that benefit from a traditional, trustworthy typographic voice.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, conveying reliability and restraint rather than flash. Its serif detailing and calm texture suggest an editorial voice—measured, established, and comfortable in long-form reading contexts.
The design appears intended as a conventional, broadly usable text serif: prioritizing readability, stable paragraph color, and time-tested detailing over overt stylistic novelty. Its moderate contrast and classic serif construction aim to work reliably across headings and extended copy.
Lowercase forms maintain clear differentiation (single-storey-style simplicity is not implied here; instead the set reads as conventional), and the italic is not shown, reinforcing a straightforward, upright text palette. The sample text holds a consistent color with no exaggerated quirks, and the punctuation and spacing shown support continuous reading.
