A compact serif with bracketed, tapered serifs and a classical, oldstyle construction. Strokes show moderate contrast with gently sheared terminals, giving the face a crisp but not overly sharp finish. Proportions are relatively tight with economical widths and steady sidebearings, creating a firm, even texture in paragraph settings. Lowercase forms lean traditional, with a two-storey “a” and “g,” and numerals that read clearly at text sizes.
Well suited to book typography, editorial pages, and other long-form reading environments where a compact measure and steady color are beneficial. It also fits formal documents and academic or institutional materials that need a conventional, dependable serif voice.
The overall tone is traditional and bookish, with a sober, institutional presence. It suggests printed literature and careful editorial typography rather than display-driven personality.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that balances clarity with classical detailing, prioritizing a stable reading rhythm and a restrained, authoritative appearance.
Capitals have a dignified, carved quality and a stable baseline, while joins and curves stay controlled and conservative. The rhythm remains consistent across the alphabet, with details that feel suited to sustained reading.
