A modulated, humanist sans with gently flared stroke endings and subtle wedge-like terminals that create a serifless-but-calligraphic texture. Curves are smooth and slightly oval, with open apertures and a steady baseline rhythm; diagonals and joins show mild stroke shaping rather than purely geometric construction. Uppercase forms feel relatively tall and stately, while the lowercase has a compact, readable build with simple single-storey shapes and rounded bowls. Numerals are clear and traditional in proportion, matching the letterforms’ soft modulation and slightly tapered ends.
Well-suited to editorial design where a refined, readable sans is desired—magazines, book interiors, essays, and long-form web reading. It can also serve in branding and display settings that benefit from a classic, cultivated tone while remaining uncluttered and highly legible.
The overall tone is classical and literary, borrowing some of the poise of inscriptional and book typography while staying clean and contemporary. Its gentle modulation and flared terminals give it a cultivated, editorial feel rather than a stark utilitarian voice.
Likely designed to provide a clean sans reading experience with added warmth and tradition, using subtle stroke modulation and flared terminals to evoke calligraphic and inscriptional cues without committing to full serifs.
Spacing appears even and comfortable in text, with a calm color that holds together well at paragraph sizes. The flared terminals and tapered strokes add character in headings without becoming ornate, and the shapes maintain consistency across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
