A conventional text serif with bracketed serifs, moderate contrast, and a steady, even rhythm across lines. The letterforms show sturdy verticals and gently tapered joins, with crisp, slightly cupped serifs that keep the texture dark without feeling heavy. Rounded characters (C, O, Q) are smooth and fairly open, while the capitals maintain traditional proportions and clear differentiation. Lowercase forms are familiar and legible, with a two-storey a and g, compact bowls, and short, controlled extenders; overall spacing reads balanced and comfortable for paragraphs.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, journals, and editorial layouts where consistent texture and familiar serif cues support readability. It can also serve effectively in reports, essays, and institutional documents, and scales cleanly for headings when a classic, conservative tone is desired.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, evoking established publishing and academic typography. It feels formal and trustworthy rather than expressive, with a calm, literary voice suited to sustained reading.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text face that prioritizes clarity and a traditional typographic color. Its restrained contrast, bracketed serifs, and oldstyle numerals suggest a focus on comfortable paragraph setting and conventional editorial presentation.
Numerals appear oldstyle with varying heights and alignments, reinforcing a traditional text setting character. The shapes retain a restrained, conventional detailing—no exaggerated calligraphy, and no geometric rigidity—aiming for a stable, workmanlike page color.
