A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke contrast, and a steady, even color on the page. The capitals are proportioned and slightly wide in feel, with clean, tapering terminals and confident vertical stress in rounded forms. Lowercase shapes are open and readable, with a two-storey “a” and “g,” compact apertures, and neatly finished serifs that keep long text from looking brittle. Numerals align comfortably with the text, mixing straight-sided forms with gently curved bowls for a cohesive texture.
Well suited to extended reading in books, long-form articles, and editorial layouts where a stable serif texture supports comfortable scanning. It also fits academic or institutional materials, reports, and headings that benefit from a classic, credible tone.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, evoking printed books, academic settings, and editorial seriousness. Its calm rhythm and familiar proportions give it an authoritative, trustworthy voice without feeling overly ornate.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif: familiar letterforms, moderate contrast, and restrained serifs aimed at clarity and a consistent typographic color in continuous text.
In text, the type maintains a consistent baseline and a measured rhythm, with clear differentiation between similar shapes (notably the I/J and O/Q). The italics are not shown, but the upright roman forms present a straightforward, editorial character with restrained detail and solid legibility.
