This serif shows crisp, bracketed serifs and a pronounced thick–thin stroke contrast, with relatively vertical stress and clean, sharply finished terminals. Proportions lean generously wide in capitals and many lowercase forms, giving lines a steady, open rhythm. Counters are spacious (notably in C, O, e, and 0), and curves transition smoothly into stems, producing a polished, print-oriented texture. The lowercase includes a double-storey g and a two-storey a with a sturdy, upright construction; numerals are lining figures with strong contrast and clear, classical shapes.
It suits long-form reading in print or high-resolution digital settings where crisp contrast and traditional letterforms are desirable. The wide, confident capitals also make it effective for section heads, pull quotes, and magazine-style headlines, while the steady lowercase rhythm supports continuous text in essays, reports, and formal communications.
The overall tone is traditional and authoritative, with an editorial seriousness that feels at home in books, journals, and institutional materials. Its contrast and crisp detailing lend a refined, slightly ceremonial character, while the roomy proportions keep it composed rather than fussy.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that balances classical proportions with modern crispness. It aims to provide a trustworthy, publication-ready voice with strong hierarchy potential between text and display sizes.
In text, the font maintains an even typographic color despite the high contrast, aided by clear serifs and consistent stem weight. Round forms remain stable and well-contained, and the capitals read as stately and measured, supporting prominent headings without looking decorative.
