A crisp, high-contrast serif with bracketed serifs and a steady, bookish rhythm. Vertical stems carry most of the weight, while joins and hairlines taper cleanly, giving counters a bright, open feel. Proportions are moderately traditional with clear differentiation between capitals and lowercase, and the overall spacing reads even and controlled in both the grid and paragraph sample.
Well-suited to body text in books, editorial layouts, and scholarly or professional documents where a classic serif texture is desired. It can also support formal branding and print materials that need a traditional, reputable typographic foundation.
The tone is traditional and authoritative, with a familiar, literary voice suited to established institutions and long-form reading. Its refined contrast and conservative letterforms suggest seriousness and care rather than novelty.
The design appears intended to provide a dependable, conventional serif for reading, combining familiar proportions with pronounced contrast for a polished, print-oriented look.
Uppercase forms feel stately and stable, while the lowercase maintains clarity through well-shaped bowls and restrained terminals. Numerals match the text color and contrast, integrating smoothly into running copy without calling undue attention.
