A serif text face with subtly flared stroke endings and gently bracketed serifs that read as calligraphic rather than mechanical. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation, with smooth curves and soft joins that keep counters open and readable. Proportions are traditional and slightly narrow in feel, with well-contained round forms and a steady baseline rhythm. The lowercase has a measured, bookish texture with modest ascenders/descenders, while capitals are balanced and stately without appearing overly sharp or high-contrast. Numerals align with the text voice, featuring clear shapes and understated terminals suited to continuous reading.
Well-suited to book typography, long-form articles, and editorial layouts where a steady reading rhythm is important. It can also work for institutional or cultural materials—programs, catalog essays, and museum text—where a traditional serif voice with subtle warmth is desired.
The overall tone is classic and composed, suggesting a literary, editorial sensibility. Its flared, pen-influenced endings add warmth and a human touch, giving pages a refined but approachable character rather than a stark, modern one.
The design appears intended to bridge classic book-serifs with a gentle flared, pen-drawn finish, prioritizing sustained readability while adding a refined, humanistic signature in terminals and serifs.
The spacing and letterfit appear even, producing a consistent gray value in paragraphs. Curved letters and diagonals (like S, V, W, and y) keep a controlled, slightly calligraphic energy, while terminals remain restrained to avoid visual noise at text sizes.
