A serif text face with gently flared, bracketed terminals and a softly calligraphic stroke flow. Curves are smooth and round with open, readable counters, while serifs taper subtly rather than forming blunt slabs. The rhythm is even and measured, with modest modulation in joins and terminals that gives stems a slightly sculpted feel. Uppercase proportions are traditional and stable, and the lowercase shows familiar, readable shapes with rounded bowls and restrained details across letters and numerals.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a comfortable, familiar texture is desired. It can also support institutional or cultural branding, packaging copy, and typographically conservative headlines that benefit from a refined serif presence.
The overall tone is traditional and literary, projecting quiet authority without feeling rigid. Its flared endings and softened terminals add warmth and a humanist touch, making it feel composed and approachable rather than stark or mechanical.
The design appears intended as a versatile reading serif that balances classic proportions with gently expressive, flared terminals. It aims to deliver a trustworthy, traditional voice while maintaining warmth and clarity in paragraph settings.
Numerals appear lining with clear differentiation and straightforward construction, supporting continuous reading. The design avoids sharp angularity; instead it relies on subtle terminal shaping and smooth curves to create texture across words and lines.
