A crisp serif with bracketed, wedge-like terminals and a noticeable stroke-contrast that reads clearly in both caps and text. The capitals are moderately wide with steady vertical stress and relatively flat, confident serifs, while curves stay smooth and controlled. Lowercase forms feel compact and sturdy, with rounded bowls and firm joins; counters are moderately open, supporting continuous text. Overall spacing and rhythm are even, producing a composed, conventional texture on the page.
Well-suited for book and long-form editorial typography where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also serve in academic or institutional materials, and it scales effectively for headings and subheads that need a formal, established presence.
The font conveys a classic, institutional tone—measured and composed rather than expressive. Its contrast and sharp serifs add a sense of authority and formality, evoking familiar book typography and editorial settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional, readable serif for general-purpose publishing, aiming for a familiar literary color with enough contrast and crispness to feel refined in display sizes as well.
Details like the angled leg on R, the diagonal tail on Q, and the pointed, structured diagonals in V/W/X reinforce a traditional serif construction. Numerals are clear and sturdy, matching the text weight and contrast for consistent inline use.
