A conventional text serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a pronounced thick–thin rhythm. Strokes show vertical stress and clean, tapered terminals, with slightly flared joins and neatly cut finishing. Proportions read a bit generous in width with open counters and steady spacing, giving the alphabet a calm, even texture in paragraphs. Uppercase forms are stately and stable, while the lowercase keeps clear differentiation and legible shapes at text sizes; numerals follow the same high-contrast, bookish construction.
Well suited to long-form reading contexts such as books, essays, and reports, where its steady rhythm and open counters support clarity. It also fits editorial layouts—magazines, journals, and cultural publishing—where a traditional serif voice is desired for headings, pull quotes, and body copy.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, with a distinctly book-and-editorial feel. Its high-contrast detailing and sharp finishing convey formality and authority, while the open spacing keeps it approachable for sustained reading.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional serif for continuous text, balancing refined contrast and crisp serifs with a stable page color. Its detailing suggests a focus on familiar literary conventions and readability rather than novelty.
Curved letters (C, G, S, O) show smooth modulation and controlled contrast, and diagonals (V, W, X) are clean and disciplined rather than decorative. The lowercase includes familiar, text-oriented details (such as a two-storey g and a compact, readable a), reinforcing a conventional reading rhythm.
