A conventional serif with bracketed terminals and a steady, medium-contrast stroke pattern. The letterforms are broadly proportioned with generous internal space, producing open counters and clear word shapes. Serifs are clean and slightly tapered rather than blocky, with a controlled, even rhythm across capitals and lowercase. Numerals match the text tone, with sturdy verticals and clear, readable shapes at display and text sizes.
Well suited to continuous reading in books, long-form articles, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It also works for reports, institutional communications, and headings that need a dependable, classical tone without calling attention to stylization.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, suggesting editorial reliability and a measured, academic voice. Its restrained details and familiar proportions read as composed and professional rather than expressive or trendy.
Likely designed as a general-purpose text serif that prioritizes familiar forms, consistent rhythm, and comfortable readability. The restrained contrast and straightforward detailing aim for versatility across editorial and professional typography.
Capitals feel stately and stable, with moderate width and consistent spacing. Lowercase forms maintain a traditional texture with clear differentiation between similar characters, supporting long-form readability.
