A conventional text serif with clearly bracketed serifs, a moderate-to-strong stroke modulation, and crisp, tapering terminals. The capitals are steady and slightly broad, with balanced proportions and open counters, while the lowercase shows a traditional two-storey a and g and compact, sturdy joins. Curves are smooth and controlled, and the overall rhythm is even, with punctuation and numerals matching the same restrained, print-oriented detailing.
Well suited for long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture is desired. It also fits reports, academic or cultural communications, and branding systems that need a traditional, authoritative typographic foundation.
The tone is classic and editorial, projecting authority and familiarity without feeling ornate. Its sharp serifs and clear contrast lend a polished, composed voice suited to serious or institutional contexts.
The design appears intended as a dependable, print-first serif for comfortable text setting, combining classic proportions with crisp contrast to maintain both readability and a formal, established character.
The numerals appear old-style in feel, with varied heights and lively curves that harmonize with the lowercase. Diacritics and dots are simple and functional, and the overall drawing favors clarity over display eccentricity.
