A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, bookish rhythm. The letterforms show open counters and balanced proportions, with compact joins and smoothly transitioning thick-to-thin strokes. Uppercase shapes are sturdy and well-centered, while the lowercase keeps a clear, readable skeleton and a moderate x-height. Numerals appear oldstyle with varying heights and a gentle, traditional flow that integrates naturally with text.
Well-suited to book interiors, editorial layouts, and other longform print or PDF reading where an even typographic color is important. It also works for reports, academic material, and traditional branding that benefits from a conservative serif voice.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting authority and familiarity rather than display-driven personality. It feels composed and established, lending a formal, editorial character to paragraphs and headings alike.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif that prioritizes clarity and a familiar typographic tone. Its restrained contrast and consistent serif logic aim to produce comfortable reading and predictable performance across sizes.
Curves and terminals are softly finished rather than sharp, and the serif treatment stays consistent across the alphabet, supporting even texture in continuous reading. The italic is not shown; the sample demonstrates a stable roman suitable for longer lines.
