This typeface presents a crisp serif construction with gently flared stroke endings and tapered, wedge-like serifs rather than blunt slabs. Strokes remain relatively even, with subtle modulation that keeps the texture smooth and controlled. Curves are round and open, and the overall proportions feel spacious, with broad letterforms and clear interior counters that maintain clarity in both uppercase and lowercase. The rhythm is steady and readable, with clean joins and restrained detailing that lends a polished, contemporary take on a classic serif model.
Well-suited to editorial typography where a clean, literary serif voice is desired, including books, magazines, and long-form reading at comfortable sizes. Its refined detailing also makes it a strong option for branding, packaging, and titling that benefits from an elegant serif presence without heavy contrast.
The overall tone is refined and composed, balancing a traditional bookish sensibility with a slightly modern, airy presence. Its soft flaring and open shapes give it an elegant, approachable character rather than a sharp or overly formal one.
The design appears intended to deliver a readable, contemporary serif with understated personality, using flared terminals to add warmth and distinction while preserving a calm, consistent text rhythm.
Numerals and punctuation follow the same restrained, flared treatment, integrating smoothly with the text color. In running text, the wide proportions and open apertures produce an even, breathable paragraph texture.
