A conventional text serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, upright stance. The capitals are broad and stately with clear, open interior spaces, while the lowercase maintains a readable, workmanlike rhythm and evenly weighted joins. Details like the compact ear on “g,” the curved descender on “y,” and the robust, bracketed feet on stems reinforce a bookish, print-oriented texture. Numerals are proportional and align comfortably with the text, matching the same restrained contrast and solid serif structure.
Well suited to body copy in books, magazines, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture supports extended reading. It also fits formal communication—reports, academic materials, and institutional collateral—where a traditional voice and steady typographic color are preferred.
The overall tone is classical and composed, suggesting editorial polish and institutional credibility. It reads as traditional and dependable rather than decorative, with a quiet confidence suited to long-form reading.
The design intention reads as a general-purpose, conventional text serif built for comfortable readability and a neutral, authoritative presence across paragraphs and headings.
Spacing appears comfortably open, giving paragraphs an airy, even color at display and text sizes. The forms favor clarity over showiness, with familiar, time-tested shapes that avoid sharp extremes in contrast or ornament.
