A conventional serif with bracketed, wedge-like serifs and moderate stroke contrast. Curves show a gently calligraphic stress, with subtly flared joins and slightly softened terminals that keep the rhythm even in text. Proportions are balanced rather than condensed or extended, with a steady cap height and a moderate x-height; ascenders are prominent and descenders are comfortably deep. Numerals appear oldstyle, with varying heights and a more text-oriented rhythm than lining figures.
Well suited to continuous reading in books, long-form articles, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture is desirable. It also fits academic and corporate documents, reports, and other settings that benefit from a traditional, legible tone.
The overall tone is classical and bookish, suggesting traditional editorial typography and a quietly authoritative voice. Its restrained detailing reads as familiar and institutional rather than decorative, conveying stability and trust.
Likely drawn to provide a dependable, traditional text face with a calm reading color and subtle calligraphic character. The design prioritizes conventional proportions and comfortable text rhythm, including text-oriented numerals, to support extended reading.
Round forms like C/O/Q have smooth, open bowls, while diagonals and arms end in small, tapered serifs that keep edges crisp without feeling sharp. The lowercase shows distinctive, slightly angled terminals and modest ear/shoulder shapes that add warmth while maintaining formality.
