A serif text face with subtly flared stroke endings and pronounced bracketing that gives the strokes a gently sculpted, calligraphic finish. Curves are round and open, while verticals feel steady and slightly tapered into the terminals, creating a lively rhythm without appearing ornate. Serifs are sharp yet not brittle, and the overall drawing balances clear proportions with small, distinctive details (notably in the lowercase and figures) that add character in running text.
Well-suited to book typography, magazine layouts, and editorial systems where a refined serif with warmth is needed. It can also perform in branding and display settings—especially for culture, publishing, and premium goods—where the flared detailing can add distinction without sacrificing readability.
The tone is bookish and polished, with a traditional voice that still feels personable due to the flared terminals and soft transitions. It suggests craft and authority rather than stark modernism, making it feel comfortable in long-form reading while still carrying an editorial sophistication.
The design appears intended to merge traditional serif readability with a subtly expressive, flared finish, providing a recognizable voice for text and titling. Its moderated contrast and bracketed structure aim for comfort in continuous reading while preserving an elegant, crafted presence.
Uppercase forms read stately and composed, while the lowercase introduces more personality through varied terminal shapes and slightly more animated stroke modulation. Numerals appear lining and text-friendly, with clear differentiation and a classic, print-oriented feel.
