A sturdy serif with pronounced stroke modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a largely vertical stress with strong thick stems and comparatively fine hairlines, producing a clear, high-contrast texture. Serifs are tapered and confidently drawn, with rounded/bracketed transitions that keep the shapes from feeling brittle. Counters are moderately open, curves are smooth, and terminals often finish in subtle ball or teardrop-like forms (notably in several lowercase letters), adding a slightly calligraphic finish without becoming ornate. Figures appear lining and serifed, matching the text rhythm and weight.
It performs well for editorial headlines and subheads where a strong, traditional serif voice is desirable. The consistent rhythm and clear modulation also suit longer-form reading such as book or magazine text, especially at comfortable sizes, and it can deliver confident impact in formal posters or display settings.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, conveying authority and refinement. It feels suited to serious, established contexts—traditional rather than trendy—while the softened bracketing and rounded terminals add a touch of warmth and approachability.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with elevated contrast and a bold, authoritative stance, balancing classical proportions with slightly softened details for comfortable reading and an editorial feel.
In text, the font creates a dense, confident color with clear vertical emphasis and a steady baseline. The uppercase has a formal presence, while the lowercase introduces gentle softness through rounded terminals and robust bowls, balancing readability with personality.
