A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, gently modulated strokes, and an even, unhurried rhythm. Capitals are proportioned with a classical feel and clear vertical stress, while the lowercase shows open apertures and round, readable bowls. Serifs are sharp but not brittle, and curves resolve cleanly into terminals, giving the design a tidy, composed texture in continuous text. Numerals are lining and align neatly with the cap height, maintaining the same restrained, bookish tone.
Well suited to book interiors, essays, journals, and other editorial environments where a steady serif texture supports extended reading. It also fits formal documents, reports, and print collateral that benefit from a traditional, established typographic voice.
The overall tone is traditional and dependable, suggesting printed literature and editorial polish rather than display flair. Its calm proportions and restrained detailing convey authority and clarity, with a quietly formal presence suited to long-form reading.
The design appears intended as a straightforward, workhorse text serif: familiar forms, moderate detailing, and a consistent rhythm aimed at comfortable readability and a classic printed character.
Stroke endings and serifs maintain consistent logic across the set, keeping word shapes stable and predictable at text sizes. The glyphs favor clarity over idiosyncrasy, producing an even color and comfortable spacing in paragraphs.
