This is a high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered stroke endings and bracketed serifs that transition smoothly into the stems. Capitals feel stately and proportioned with generous counters (notably in C, O, Q) and a measured, bookish rhythm. The lowercase shows a traditional structure with a two-storey a and g, compact joins, and a moderate bowl-to-stem relationship that keeps texture even in paragraphs. Numerals are lining and serifed, with clear modulation and classic shapes that align visually with the text color.
It performs well in long-form reading environments such as books, essays, and magazine typography, where its structured serif forms create a familiar, comfortable texture. The contrast and sharp detailing also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding elements when set with adequate size and leading.
The overall tone is traditional and cultured, projecting an editorial, bookish authority rather than a casual or decorative voice. Its sharp contrast and refined terminals lend a polished, slightly formal character that suits serious, established brands and institutions.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that balances refined detailing with steady paragraph rhythm. It aims to deliver a classic printed-page feel while remaining versatile enough for both body copy and dignified display settings.
Round letters carry a subtle vertical stress, and many joins and terminals end in fine points that increase elegance at display sizes. The italics are not shown; the visible roman maintains consistent spacing and a steady baseline presence in continuous text.
