A conventional serif with bracketed serifs and clearly modulated strokes, showing moderate contrast between stems and hairlines. The proportions feel balanced and slightly stately, with sturdy verticals, rounded bowls, and calm curves that keep the texture even in paragraph settings. Capitals are strong and steady with crisp terminals, while lowercase forms maintain familiar text shapes and a stable rhythm. Numerals appear lining and readable, matching the overall tone and weight without drawing attention.
Well-suited to long-form reading such as book interiors and editorial layouts, where an even typographic color and conventional letterforms are beneficial. It also fits reports, academic or institutional materials, and magazine typography that calls for a traditional serif voice.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, conveying a composed, authoritative voice typical of traditional print typography. It feels formal without being ornate, lending a dependable, editorial character to both headings and continuous reading.
The design appears intended as a reliable, general-purpose text serif: conventional proportions, moderate stroke contrast, and familiar details optimized to produce an even, readable texture across paragraphs while still holding up in display sizes.
The font’s rhythm is consistent across the alphabet, and the serifs are firm but not heavy, helping maintain clarity at text sizes. Curved letters and diagonals (such as in V/W/Y) keep a controlled, traditional stance rather than a calligraphic flair.
