A conventional text serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a steady, print-like rhythm. The capitals are proportioned with restrained, classical shapes, while the lowercase shows a relatively tall x-height and compact, efficient widths. Serifs are crisp without becoming sharp, and joins and curves maintain a smooth, slightly calligraphic flow. Numerals appear traditional with varying heights and proportions (oldstyle-style figures), matching the text color of the lowercase.
Well suited to book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts where an even text color and familiar serif structure support sustained reading. It also fits academic and professional documents, reports, and any setting that benefits from a traditional, trustworthy typographic voice.
The overall tone is classic and literary, projecting a dependable, scholarly seriousness. It feels rooted in book typography rather than display styling, with a calm, authoritative voice suitable for long-form reading.
The design appears intended as a practical, conventional serif for text composition, emphasizing readability, balanced proportions, and a stable typographic texture. Its traditional numerals and restrained detailing suggest a focus on classic, print-oriented setting rather than attention-grabbing display effects.
Counters are generally open and the spacing appears even, supporting a consistent texture across paragraphs. Diagonals and rounded letters keep a controlled, disciplined profile, and the type maintains clarity at text sizes without relying on exaggerated features.
