A traditional serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, book-oriented rhythm. Capitals are sturdy and well proportioned with crisp terminals and slightly tapered joins; the “Q” has a clear, calligraphic tail and the “G” features a defined spur. Lowercase forms read as oldstyle-leaning, with a two-storey “a,” a two-storey “g” with a distinct ear, and soft, rounded bowls that contrast with sharper serifs. Figures appear lining, with open counters and consistent weight distribution that stays solid at text sizes.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, magazines, and editorial layouts where an even serif texture helps maintain legibility. It also fits academic or professional documents, reports, and formal communications that benefit from a conventional, authoritative typographic voice.
The overall tone is classic and formal, evoking printed books, editorial tradition, and institutional typography. It feels composed and trustworthy rather than decorative, with a quiet authority suitable for serious reading and conventional branding.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif that prioritizes readability and familiar letterforms. Its moderate contrast and bracketed serifs aim to produce a stable page color for continuous reading while retaining a traditional printed character.
Stroke endings and serifs stay relatively crisp, while curves remain generous, producing a balanced texture in paragraphs. The spacing in the sample text suggests an even color with clear word shapes, especially in mixed-case settings.
