A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, moderate contrast, and a steady, bookish rhythm. The letterforms show gently tapered strokes with slightly flared terminals and a calm, even color in text. Proportions lean classical rather than condensed, with rounded bowls and a comfortably sized x-height that keeps lowercase readable while preserving traditional serif elegance. Numerals follow the same restrained, text-oriented construction with smooth curves and consistent weight distribution.
Well-suited for body copy in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture is desired. It should also perform confidently in reports, academic materials, and other content-forward documents, with enough presence for headings and pull quotes without becoming overly decorative.
The overall tone is traditional and composed, suggesting printed-page credibility and editorial restraint. It feels established and trustworthy, with a subtle warmth that suits long-form reading rather than attention-grabbing display.
The design appears intended as a dependable, general-purpose text serif: classical in structure, restrained in contrast, and tuned for clarity and continuity in paragraph settings.
Serif shapes and joins read cleanly at both the glyph grid and paragraph sizes, with a measured cadence that supports continuous reading. Uppercase forms appear stately and stable, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation between similar shapes for comfortable scanning.
