A conventional serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and pronounced stroke modulation. Curves are smooth and round, while joins and terminals stay clean and sharply finished, giving the outlines a disciplined, print-oriented feel. Proportions are balanced with generous counters and steady sidebearings, producing an even texture in paragraphs. The lowercase shows traditional, two-storey forms (notably a and g) and clear, compact punctuation-like details such as sturdy i/j dots and defined ear/terminal shapes.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It can also serve formal headings, pull quotes, and institutional or academic materials where clarity and a classic tone are important.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, projecting trust and tradition. Its high-contrast rhythm and sharp serifs add a sense of refinement and ceremony, making the voice feel scholarly and established rather than casual.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional text serif that delivers a familiar reading experience while adding a touch of elegance through strong contrast and crisp detailing.
Numerals appear lining and well-structured, with strong verticals and clear open shapes that match the text color. Uppercase forms are stately and evenly weighted, while the lowercase maintains a readable cadence with distinct silhouettes for common letters.
