A conventional serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a clean, controlled stroke rhythm. Stems are relatively slender with moderate thick–thin modulation, and the overall drawing feels precise rather than calligraphic. Counters are open and the curves are smooth, with neatly finished terminals and compact letterforms that maintain a steady, even color in text. Numerals and capitals follow the same restrained, book-oriented construction, reading cleanly without ornamental flourishes.
Well-suited to extended reading in books, editorial layouts, and magazines where a familiar serif voice is desired. It also fits reports, academic material, and other formal documents that benefit from a composed, traditional typographic texture.
The tone is traditional and composed, evoking familiar literary and editorial typography. It feels refined and authoritative without being showy, with a quiet, academic sensibility suited to serious reading and formal messaging.
The design intention appears to be a dependable, classic text serif that prioritizes steady rhythm and legibility in continuous reading. Its restrained detailing and consistent construction aim for versatility in editorial and document typography rather than display eccentricity.
In the sample text, spacing and proportions create a tidy, economical line that supports dense setting while retaining clarity. The serif details stay consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, contributing to a cohesive, disciplined texture.
