A low-contrast slab serif with sturdy, rectangular serifs and mostly straight-sided stems. The serifs read as firm and flat, with slight bracketing in places that softens joins and keeps the texture even. Capitals are broad and calm with generous interior space, while the lowercase maintains clear, open counters and a steady rhythm. Overall spacing is comfortable and the design avoids fussy detail, favoring clean terminals and a consistent, readable color in text.
Works well for editorial layouts where a sturdy serif texture is desired—magazine articles, essays, and book interiors at comfortable sizes. The broad capitals and clean slabs also suit headlines, pull quotes, and institutional or academic materials where clarity and restraint are priorities.
The tone feels editorial and dependable, with a quietly traditional voice suited to serious, information-forward typography. Its slab presence adds confidence without becoming heavy, giving it a composed, slightly bookish character.
Likely intended to deliver the authority and steadiness of a slab serif while staying light enough for continuous reading. The design aims for a balanced, print-friendly rhythm: clear counters, uncomplicated terminals, and a consistent texture that supports longer passages as well as display lines.
The sample text shows stable word shapes and clear differentiation in common forms (notably the open bowls and straightforward diagonals). Numerals appear simple and legible with an oldstyle-like flow in curves and a restrained, print-oriented feel.
