A classic serif with bracketed serifs, moderate stroke modulation, and a slightly calligraphic rhythm. The letterforms show soft, rounded transitions into serifs, open counters, and a steady baseline presence with subtly tapered terminals. Proportions feel traditional rather than condensed or extended, with comfortable spacing and a sturdy color that stays even across mixed-case text.
Well-suited for long-form reading such as books, essays, and magazines where a familiar serif texture supports sustained legibility. It also fits institutional and professional materials—reports, academic publishing, and legal-style layouts—where a conventional, established typographic voice is appropriate.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, projecting authority and familiarity without feeling ornate. It reads as composed and editorial, suitable for contexts where a conventional, trustworthy voice is desired.
Designed to provide a dependable, traditional reading experience with a refined serif structure and a calm, consistent text rhythm. The intent appears to be an all-purpose, literature-oriented serif that feels timeless and versatile across editorial and formal communication.
Uppercase forms carry a restrained, Roman inscription-like solidity, while lowercase characters keep a gentle, oldstyle texture with rounded joins and clear differentiation between similar shapes. Numerals appear lining and straightforward, matching the texty character of the alphabet without calling attention to themselves.
