A compact serif with bracketed serifs and a calm, even rhythm. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation with fairly crisp terminals, giving the letters a clean, printed texture without feeling delicate. Proportions run on the narrow side, with relatively tight bowls and counters that stay open enough for continuous reading. The lowercase has a straightforward, traditional construction with a two-storey a and g and a modest, non-calligraphic italicless stance, while capitals are sturdy and evenly proportioned.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, journals, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. The compact width can be helpful for dense text settings such as reports, academic material, and newspapers, while still supporting clear hierarchy in headings and pull quotes.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, evoking conventional editorial typography and a sense of authority. It feels formal and composed rather than expressive, lending a quietly traditional character to text.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional text serif that prioritizes readability and typographic neutrality. Its restrained contrast and consistent serif treatment suggest a focus on producing an even page color and familiar reading experience.
Figures appear lining with noticeable contrast and conventional shapes, fitting comfortably alongside capitals. Curves are smooth and controlled, and serifs remain consistent across the set, supporting a stable color in paragraphs.
