A classic serif with bracketed serifs and a balanced, text-oriented construction. Strokes show clear modulation without extreme thin hairlines, and terminals are crisp with gently cupped or tapered ends. Proportions are steady and traditional, with open counters and a calm rhythm that keeps lines of text even and readable. Numerals and capitals carry a slightly stately presence, while lowercase forms stay compact and tidy for continuous reading.
Well-suited for long-form reading such as books, essays, and editorial layouts, where an even texture and conventional letterforms are important. It also fits formal documents, academic materials, and print-forward branding that benefits from a familiar, authoritative serif voice.
The overall tone is traditional and institutional, evoking printed books, editorial typography, and established publishing. It feels composed and reputable rather than expressive, lending a measured, authoritative voice to headlines and body copy alike.
The font appears designed as a dependable, general-purpose text serif: traditional in structure, restrained in detailing, and optimized for clarity across paragraphs while still offering a dignified presence in titles and headings.
The design maintains consistent serif treatment across uppercase and lowercase, with smooth joins and controlled curves that help avoid visual noise at text sizes. Spacing appears even in the sample paragraph, supporting comfortable word shapes and a steady reading texture.
