A conventional serif with bracketed serifs and moderately modulated strokes. The letterforms show crisp, clean joins and mostly vertical stress, with open counters and steady spacing that reads evenly in continuous text. Uppercase proportions are restrained and classical, while the lowercase keeps a straightforward, bookish structure with a two-storey a and g, compact ascenders, and clear differentiation between similar shapes. Numerals follow the same traditional text-serif logic, with balanced curves and tidy serifs that align comfortably with the alphabet.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, journals, and editorial layouts where a conventional serif voice is desired. It also fits formal documents, reports, and interfaces that benefit from a familiar, text-forward serif with clear letter differentiation.
The overall tone is familiar and composed, evoking traditional publishing and institutional typography. It feels dignified without being ornate, projecting trust and clarity rather than display-driven personality.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif that prioritizes readability and typographic neutrality. Its proportions and restrained detailing suggest it’s meant to blend into editorial systems while still providing a traditional, authoritative texture on the page.
Details such as the tapered diagonals, bracket transitions into serifs, and the measured curvature in bowls (e.g., C/O/Q) contribute to a controlled rhythm. The italic is not shown; all samples appear roman/upright.
