A traditional serif with bracketed, gently tapered serifs and a moderate, book-oriented color. Strokes show clear but restrained modulation, with rounded joins and smooth curves that keep counters open and readable. Capitals are stately and evenly proportioned, while lowercase forms are compact and steady, with a two-storey “g” and a single-storey “a” contributing to a familiar text rhythm. Numerals appear oldstyle in feel, with varying heights and subtle curvature that blends naturally into running text.
Well-suited to book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts where sustained readability matters. It also works for magazines, institutional communications, and academic or cultural materials that benefit from a conventional, polished serif presence.
The overall tone is classic and literary, suggesting printed pages, reference works, and editorial typography. It reads as composed and trustworthy rather than flashy, with a quietly formal voice suited to long-form reading.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif: familiar letterforms, controlled contrast, and measured detailing that prioritize readability and typographic neutrality for publishing contexts.
Serif shaping and terminals stay consistent across the set, producing a stable line of text at both display and paragraph sizes. Spacing appears even, and the face maintains clarity without sharp, brittle detail, helping it hold up well in dense blocks of copy.
