A restrained slab serif with clear bracketed serifs, crisp terminals, and a mostly vertical stress. Strokes read even overall but show subtle modulation, giving the outlines a slightly refined, print-oriented feel rather than a purely geometric build. Capitals are broad and steady with generous interior space; lowercase forms are open and evenly proportioned, supporting smooth rhythm in paragraphs. Numerals are straightforward and lining in feel, with simple curves and sturdy slab feet that keep them visually anchored.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books, magazines, and editorial layouts where a stable serif texture is desired. It can also serve in corporate reports, institutional communications, and understated branding systems that need a dependable, readable slab serif.
The tone is traditional and composed, with a quietly authoritative presence. Its slab serifs add firmness and clarity without becoming decorative, creating a familiar, editorial voice suited to serious content.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose slab serif: sturdy, legible, and neutral enough for continuous text, with just enough refinement to feel polished in professional publishing contexts.
In text, spacing appears calm and consistent, and the letterforms maintain clarity at larger reading sizes. The serifs are prominent enough to guide the eye along a line, while the overall drawing stays clean and uncluttered.
