This typeface shows subtly flared terminals and wedge-like stroke endings that give the outlines a sculpted, pen-influenced feel. Curves are smooth and slightly tensioned, with moderate stroke modulation and crisp joins that keep the silhouettes clean at display and text sizes. Proportions lean toward classical capitals with open counters (notably in C, O, Q) and a straightforward, readable lowercase; spacing appears even, supporting a steady line rhythm in the sample paragraph. Numerals follow the same tapered, slightly calligraphic construction, reading clearly without feeling rigidly geometric.
It is well suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a refined texture and clear letterforms matter. The distinctive flared terminals also make it effective for magazine headlines, subheads, and brand identities that want a classic, crafted tone without heavy ornamentation.
The overall tone is polished and literary, with a quiet sense of tradition. Its flared strokes and controlled modulation suggest editorial seriousness and a hint of timeless craft, rather than a purely utilitarian or tech-forward voice.
The design appears intended to blend contemporary clarity with classical, calligraphic cues—using subtle flaring and modulation to add warmth and authority while preserving a clean, readable page color. It aims to feel elevated and trustworthy in text-driven contexts, with enough character to support display use.
Diagonal strokes (V, W, X, Y) show confident tapering and pointed terminals that add elegance without becoming ornamental. The lowercase maintains a calm texture in running text, while capitals feel slightly more ceremonial, making the face comfortable for mixed-case settings and typographic hierarchy.
