A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a calm, book-oriented rhythm. Capitals are slightly narrow with sharp, triangular finishing strokes and gently tapered terminals. Lowercase forms show oldstyle influence—most notably a two-storey “g,” a softly angled stress in rounded letters, and a readable, moderately sized x-height. Numerals align with the text color and share the same restrained contrast and crisp serifs, keeping the overall texture even in paragraphs.
Well suited to book interiors, essays, journals, and other long-form editorial settings where a stable text color and conventional letterforms are preferred. It can also serve for formal documents and headlines that need a classic serif presence without overt stylization.
The tone is traditional and literary, suggesting editorial credibility and a measured, academic voice. It feels familiar and authoritative without becoming ornamental, lending a subtle sense of heritage and seriousness to headlines and longer reading.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional text serif that prioritizes readability and familiar forms. Its moderate contrast and bracketed serifs aim for a balanced page texture that feels at home in print-like typography.
The sample text shows steady spacing and a consistent vertical rhythm that holds together well at text sizes. Pointed joins and sharp entry strokes add a slightly crisp, print-like finish, while the overall shapes remain conservative and easy to follow.
