A refined serif with pronounced stroke modulation and delicate hairline serifs. The letterforms show a traditional, book-oriented construction with gently bracketed serifs, tapered terminals, and an overall calm, vertical stance. Curves are smoothly modeled and the contrast creates a crisp rhythm, while proportions stay balanced and readable with moderately open counters and slightly elongated ascenders/descenders.
This design is well suited to long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also serve effectively for magazine typography, formal announcements, and other print-forward applications that benefit from a refined, high-contrast voice.
The font conveys a classic, literary tone—measured and polished rather than loud or quirky. Its high-contrast detailing and tidy finishing suggest formality and care, evoking the feel of established publishing and traditional print typography.
The font appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes an elegant page color and a familiar reading rhythm. Its high-contrast modeling and bracketed serifs aim to deliver a timeless, print-classic impression while remaining composed and legible in paragraph settings.
The capitals are stately and evenly proportioned, with sharp joins and restrained ornamentation. In the lowercase, the two-storey forms and angled stress contribute to a traditional text texture, while the numerals follow the same refined, high-contrast logic and appear well-suited to running text and editorial settings.
