A serif typeface with compact proportions and a steady, low-contrast stroke. Stems and terminals broaden into subtle flares, giving many letters wedge-like, tapering ends rather than blunt slabs. Serifs are small and neatly bracketed, and joins are smooth, producing a controlled rhythm across text. Counters are relatively tight and the overall color is even, with crisp edges and a disciplined, bookish texture.
Well-suited to continuous reading in books and long-form editorial settings where a stable, even texture is valued. It can also support formal documents and publishing layouts that need a classic serif presence without high-contrast delicacy.
The face reads as traditional and composed, with a literary, editorial tone. Its understated flaring adds a hint of calligraphic warmth without becoming decorative, keeping the voice formal and dependable.
The design appears intended to provide a familiar text serif with a modestly distinctive finish, using flared terminals and small bracketed serifs to add personality while preserving legibility and typographic neutrality in paragraph use.
Uppercase forms feel compact and authoritative, while the lowercase maintains clarity with conventional constructions and restrained detailing. Numerals are sturdy and straightforward, matching the text color and maintaining the same tapered terminal logic seen in letters.
