A classic serif with bracketed serifs and crisp, high-contrast strokes. The letterforms show a calligraphic influence in the modulation and joins, with rounded, open counters and a steady, text-oriented rhythm. Uppercase proportions feel balanced and slightly wide, while lowercase forms are compact with clear differentiation between similar shapes; numerals are lining and integrate cleanly with the capitals. Terminals are mostly tapered and decisive, producing sharp silhouettes without looking overly brittle.
Well-suited to extended reading in books, journals, and editorial layouts where a conventional serif texture is desired. It also works for formal documents, academic or institutional materials, and classic headline settings when a composed, traditional voice is needed.
The overall tone is bookish and traditional, projecting authority and restraint. It reads as refined and established rather than trendy, with an editorial seriousness suited to long-form content and classic branding.
The font appears designed as a dependable, conventional text serif: prioritizing legibility, stable proportions, and a familiar reading rhythm while using high contrast and bracketed serifs to convey polish and tradition.
The design maintains consistent contrast and serif treatment across the set, with neat spacing and a calm, even color in paragraphs. Curved letters (C, O, Q, S) are smoothly drawn, and the italics are not shown—this presentation emphasizes a straightforward roman voice.
