A high-contrast serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and a subtle calligraphic stress that gives the curves a lively, oldstyle-influenced rhythm. Capitals are relatively wide with confident verticals and carefully tapered joins, while lowercase forms balance sturdy stems with soft, rounded bowls and compact, gently cupped terminals. The italics are not shown; the roman maintains crisp, clean edges, pronounced thick–thin transitions, and open interior spaces that read well at display sizes while remaining orderly for text.
This typeface suits editorial environments such as books, magazines, and long-form articles where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs well for branding, packaging, and headline settings that benefit from a refined, authoritative presence and crisp detail.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, with a refined, editorial polish. Its sharp serifs and measured contrast convey authority and formality, while the slightly humanist shaping keeps it from feeling cold or rigid.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, classic reading experience with elevated contrast and traditional serif manners, providing a cultivated voice for both text and display. Its balanced proportions and controlled detailing suggest a focus on dependable typographic rhythm with a touch of historical warmth.
Round letters show a clear diagonal stress, and strokes often finish in small triangular or beaked details that add character without becoming decorative. Numerals appear lining and proportional in feel, with strong contrast and classic shapes that match the text color of the letters.
