A compact, bookish serif with bracketed, tapered serifs and a clean, controlled rhythm. Strokes show clear but restrained thick–thin modulation, with sturdy verticals and relatively crisp joins. The letterforms keep proportions tight and economical, with rounded counters and a steady baseline presence; capitals are stately and the lowercase maintains a conventional structure with a two-storey “a” and “g” and teardrop-like terminals in places. Numerals are lining and proportionally consistent, designed to sit comfortably alongside text without drawing attention.
Well-suited for continuous reading in books, journals, and editorial layouts where a compact serif texture helps fit more text per line. It can also serve for headlines and subheads when a traditional, authoritative tone is desired, especially in print-like compositions.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, suggesting authority without heaviness. It carries a familiar, print-oriented voice that feels suited to established institutions and long-form reading.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly legible text serif that balances clarity with a classic typographic color. Its restrained detailing and compact proportions suggest an aim toward efficient composition and dependable reading performance.
The shapes lean toward a transitional text serif feel: strong vertical emphasis, moderated contrast, and serifs that guide the eye along the line. Spacing appears fairly compact, reinforcing a dense, economical texture in paragraph settings.
