A relaxed, calligraphic roman with softly flared, serif-like terminals and gently rounded joins. Strokes stay fairly even, with subtle modulation that reads more as pen influence than sharp contrast. Curves are open and buoyant, counters are roomy, and the overall rhythm feels slightly handwritten while remaining consistent across the set. Proportions are moderate with a straightforward, upright stance and comfortable spacing that keeps paragraphs clear.
Well-suited to editorial and book-oriented layouts where a warm, human touch is desired while preserving readability. It also fits branding, packaging, and short-form display applications—such as headings, pull quotes, and product names—where its soft calligraphic flavor can add charm without looking overly decorative.
The tone is personable and slightly old-world, blending a traditional bookish feel with the ease of hand-drawn lettering. It comes across as friendly and conversational rather than formal, with just enough flourish in terminals and curves to add character without becoming ornate.
Likely intended to deliver an approachable, hand-influenced reading experience—evoking traditional serif forms shaped by a pen—while staying steady and legible for continuous text.
Distinctive, soft-footed terminals show up throughout (notably in forms like C, S, and the numerals), giving the face a gentle finish. The lowercase maintains clear differentiation between similar shapes, and the figures appear designed to harmonize with text rather than dominate it.
