A compact, text-oriented serif with bracketed serifs, rounded joins, and a calm, even rhythm. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation with smooth curves and softly tapered terminals rather than sharp cuts. Capitals are relatively narrow with classical proportions, while lowercase maintains steady texture and clear counters; the two-story “a” and single-story “g” reinforce a familiar reading pattern. Numerals are lining and similarly compact, with gentle curves and restrained detailing that keeps the overall color consistent.
Well suited to body copy in books, articles, and other long-form reading where a steady serif texture is desirable. It can also serve in captions, notes, and formal documents that benefit from a compact, traditional voice.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, with a reserved formality that feels at home in editorial and institutional settings. Its narrow stance and tidy finishing convey seriousness and precision without appearing rigid or mechanical.
Designed to deliver a conventional, readable serif texture with compact proportions and restrained modulation, prioritizing an even flow in paragraphs. The detailing suggests an aim for classic credibility and clear typesetting across a range of text sizes.
The italic-like liveliness comes from subtle tapering and the slightly calligraphic shaping in curves and terminals, especially noticeable in letters like S, C, and e. Spacing appears tuned for continuous text, producing an even paragraph gray while still keeping letterforms distinct at larger sizes.
