A conventional serif with bracketed wedge-like serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Curves are smoothly drawn with crisp terminals, and the overall rhythm is steady and text-oriented rather than decorative. Capitals feel sturdy and slightly compact, while lowercase shows familiar, book-style proportions with clear bowls and counters; the two-storey forms and the angled stress in rounded letters reinforce a traditional reading texture. Numerals follow the same oldstyle-influenced, serifed construction, with rounded forms and distinct terminals that keep them visually consistent with the letters.
This font is well suited to book typography, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture supports comfortable reading. It also fits academic or institutional documents, reports, and print materials that benefit from a traditional, authoritative tone.
The tone is classic and literary, evoking printed books, editorial typography, and institutional formality. Its high-contrast detailing and traditional serif cues convey authority and a measured, cultivated voice rather than casual friendliness.
The design appears intended as a dependable, classical text serif that delivers a recognizable print feel with refined contrast and disciplined serifing. Its choices favor readability and typographic tradition, aiming to perform reliably in continuous text while still feeling polished in headlines.
Stroke endings and serifs remain consistent across the set, giving a cohesive page color in paragraph settings. The letterforms prioritize clarity and convention, with restrained character and minimal idiosyncrasy—suited to long-form composition where even texture matters.
