A traditional text serif with bracketed serifs and gently modulated strokes. Curves are smooth and open, with rounded terminals and a restrained, calligraphic influence that shows in the lowercase bowl shapes and the angled joins. Proportions feel balanced and book-oriented, with sturdy verticals, moderate apertures, and a comfortable rhythm in running text. The capitals are stately and evenly spaced, while the lowercase maintains a steady color with clear differentiation between forms like a, g, and y.
Well-suited for long-form body copy in books, essays, reports, and editorial layouts where an even texture and familiar serif forms support comfortable reading. It can also serve for formal headings and pull quotes when a traditional, authoritative voice is desired.
The overall tone is classic and literary, evoking printed books, academic settings, and editorial typography. It feels formal without being ornate, projecting trust, tradition, and readability.
The design appears intended as a conventional, highly readable serif for sustained text, prioritizing a stable baseline rhythm, clear letter differentiation, and a classic typographic voice appropriate for print and editorial communication.
Numerals appear lining and evenly weighted, matching the text color and serif treatment. The italic is not shown; the roman displays consistent serif bracketing and a measured contrast that supports continuous reading.
