A traditional serif with bracketed serifs and moderately modulated strokes. The letterforms show sturdy, fairly wide proportions, with crisp terminals, open counters, and a steady, even rhythm in text. Capitals are strong and slightly imposing, while lowercase forms keep conventional construction with a clear two-storey a and g, a compact ear on g, and a defined, readable e. Numerals match the text color well, with clear differentiation and consistent serif treatment.
Well-suited to book interiors, essays, and other longform reading where a steady texture and familiar serif forms help reduce fatigue. It also works effectively for editorial layouts, academic materials, and brand systems that need a traditional, credible typographic foundation.
The overall tone is classic and academic, evoking printed literature, reference works, and institutional typography. Its calm, authoritative presence feels familiar and conventional rather than decorative, supporting a serious and trustworthy voice.
Likely designed as a dependable, general-purpose text serif that prioritizes readability and a classic printed voice. The balanced proportions and restrained detailing suggest an emphasis on consistent color and comfortable paragraph setting across a range of sizes.
Serifs and joins read cleanly at display and text sizes, and the punctuation in the sample shows solid baseline alignment and consistent spacing. The forms lean toward a robust, slightly old-style feel in the lowercase while keeping a composed, editorial demeanor in the caps.
