A traditional serif with bracketed serifs, gently modulated stroke contrast, and a steady, text-oriented rhythm. Proportions feel balanced rather than condensed or extended, with open counters and clean joins that keep paragraphs legible at size. The capitals are dignified and slightly wide with smooth curves (notably in C, G, O), while the lowercase shows oldstyle tendencies such as a two-storey a and a moderate, readable x-height. Numerals align comfortably with the text, with familiar shapes and consistent weight distribution that suit running copy.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif voice and consistent texture are priorities. It also fits formal documents, reports, and educational materials that benefit from a conventional, authoritative typographic presence.
The overall tone is classic and composed, evoking printed books, editorial pages, and institutional communications. Its restrained contrast and conventional detailing convey reliability and seriousness without feeling overly ornate.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif: traditional in structure, comfortable in paragraphs, and versatile enough for both body copy and restrained headings.
Serif terminals are rounded and softly cupped rather than sharply wedge-like, helping the face read smoothly in continuous text. Spacing appears even in the sample, producing a calm color and a measured cadence across mixed-case settings.
