A conventional serif with bracketed serifs and gently tapered strokes that suggest a subtle, calligraphic stress. Curves are round and open, with moderate modulation and smooth transitions into serifs rather than abrupt slab endings. Uppercase proportions feel balanced and bookish, while the lowercase shows a traditional rhythm with a two-storey “g” and a moderately sized x-height. Numerals appear lining with clear, slightly oldstyle-inflected shapes and consistent weight distribution.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture is desirable. It also fits reports, academic materials, and cultural branding that benefit from a traditional, trustworthy voice, and can carry headlines when set with ample size and leading.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, conveying reliability and a quiet sense of refinement. Its familiar, traditional forms read as scholarly and literary rather than trendy, lending a composed, institutional character to headings and text.
The font appears designed as a dependable, general-purpose text serif with traditional proportions and restrained contrast, aiming for comfortable readability and a timeless, print-oriented feel. Its details prioritize familiarity and steady rhythm over expressive display features.
The design favors clarity through conventional letterforms and restrained detailing, with smooth, rounded bowls and unobtrusive serifs that keep texture even across words. Spacing appears comfortable in paragraph setting, supporting an even typographic color without calling attention to individual glyphs.
