This typeface is a delicate text serif with fine, tapering strokes and crisply formed, bracketed serifs. Curves are smooth and restrained, with generous internal counters and open apertures that keep letters clear at reading sizes. Proportions feel traditional and slightly narrow in the lowercase, complemented by long ascenders and a balanced, even rhythm across words. Capitals are clean and formal, and the numerals share the same light touch with consistent alignment and understated detailing.
It performs well in long-form editorial settings such as books, magazines, and essays, where its open counters and measured rhythm support comfortable reading. The refined capitals also suit high-end branding, invitations, and display titling when set with ample whitespace and modest sizes.
The overall tone is poised and bookish, projecting a calm, cultured elegance rather than overt display. Its lightness and tidy drawing suggest a premium, editorial sensibility—appropriate for contexts where subtle sophistication matters.
The design appears intended as a contemporary interpretation of a classic book serif: light in color, carefully proportioned, and optimized for an even, literary text texture while retaining enough sharpness for tasteful headings.
The italics are not shown; the roman demonstrates careful spacing and a smooth baseline texture in continuous text. The lowercase shows classic forms (notably a two-storey “g” and a crisp “t”), and the overall rendering emphasizes refinement over heaviness.
