A restrained slab-serif with fairly even stroke weight and softly bracketed, rectangular serifs. The letterforms are built on clear, classical proportions with smooth curves, open counters, and gently tapered terminals that keep the texture readable at text sizes. Spacing and rhythm feel measured rather than tight, and the numerals follow the same straightforward, book-oriented construction.
Well suited to body copy in print-leaning contexts such as books, magazines, and editorial layouts where a slab serif’s structure can add clarity and pace. It can also serve effectively for reports, essays, and other text-forward materials that benefit from a stable, traditional typographic color.
The overall tone is workmanlike and composed, with a familiar editorial voice. It reads as traditional and dependable rather than showy, giving text a steady, literate character suitable for long-form reading.
Likely designed as a no-nonsense slab serif for comfortable reading and general-purpose typography, balancing sturdy serifs with conservative proportions for an unobtrusive, professional page texture.
Serifs remain prominent but not heavy, helping lines of text form a consistent horizontal cadence. Uppercase forms stay clean and conventional, while lowercase shapes maintain a quiet, continuous flow that supports paragraph reading.
