A conventional serif with sturdy, bracketed serifs and a calm, even rhythm. Strokes show moderate contrast with clearly defined thick–thin transitions, and terminals tend toward crisp, slightly flared endings rather than blunt cuts. Capitals are broad and stable, with generous interior counters and strong horizontal serifs, while the lowercase keeps a familiar book-face structure with well-formed bowls and a readable, open texture in running text. Numerals appear lining and sturdy, matching the overall width and weight of the alphabet for consistent color across mixed content.
Works well for book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and academic or professional documents where a familiar serif voice is expected. The robust letterforms also suit headlines, pull quotes, and classic brand applications that benefit from an authoritative, traditional presence.
The tone is classic and editorial, projecting reliability and tradition. Its shapes feel scholarly and institutional, suited to contexts where seriousness and clarity are more important than stylistic novelty.
Designed to deliver a dependable, conventional serif reading experience with strong structure and clear differentiation of forms. The emphasis appears to be on broad usability—clean text setting, confident display presence, and an unmistakably traditional typographic voice.
The overall color is solid and dark, with pronounced joins and confident serifs that hold up at display sizes while still reading comfortably in paragraphs. Spacing appears comfortable and even, creating a stable text block with minimal visual fuss.
