This serif displays clearly bracketed serifs, moderate-to-strong stroke modulation, and an upright, bookish construction. Curves show a predominantly vertical stress, with thin hairlines and sturdier stems creating a crisp, high-contrast rhythm. Uppercase forms are stately and fairly wide, with rounded letters (O, C) kept smooth and even, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) remain sharp and clean. Lowercase shapes are traditional and readable, with open apertures and compact joins; the two-storey a and g feel conventional, and the numerals follow the same modulated, old-style-inspired detailing.
Well-suited to book and long-form editorial typography where a traditional serif voice is desired, and it can also carry section heads and pull quotes thanks to its crisp contrast. It fits academic and institutional materials, as well as branding that aims for heritage and credibility.
The overall tone is classic and cultivated, evoking traditional publishing and institutional typography. Its contrast and poised serifs lend a formal, authoritative voice that reads as polished rather than casual.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with a refined, high-contrast finish—balancing readability with a distinctly classic, publishing-oriented character.
In text, the design maintains a steady baseline and consistent color, with hairlines that add finesse in larger sizes. The italic is not shown, and the sample emphasizes strong headline presence alongside legible paragraph setting.
