A wide, serifed text face with gently flared stroke endings and bracketed serifs that feel sculpted rather than mechanical. Strokes show a moderate thick–thin relationship with smooth transitions, and the curves are broad with open counters, giving letters a calm, steady rhythm. Proportions are expansive—especially in rounds and capitals—while the lowercase keeps a balanced, readable x-height and clearly differentiated forms. Numerals and capitals share the same broad stance, with subtly calligraphic shaping at terminals that softens the overall geometry.
This font is well suited to editorial settings such as magazine typography, book interiors with generous margins, and display use in headlines and subheads where its wide proportions can breathe. It can also support brand identities seeking a classic, cultivated tone, especially for publishing, cultural institutions, and premium goods.
The overall tone is formal and traditional, with a bookish, editorial voice. Its wide set and flared finishing details add a dignified, slightly historic flavor without feeling ornate or fragile. The impression is confident and composed, suited to content that benefits from gravitas and clarity.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif structure with subtly flared, calligraphic terminals, creating a refined texture that stands out in display while remaining readable in longer text. Its wide proportions suggest an emphasis on elegance and presence, prioritizing a spacious, high-end typographic color.
In the sample text, the wide measure and open internal spaces help maintain legibility at larger sizes, while the flared terminals add texture and warmth across lines. The design reads as more expressive than a neutral text serif, but still controlled enough for sustained reading.
