A crisp, high-contrast serif with bracketed serifs and a predominantly vertical stress. The design balances sturdy main stems against fine hairlines, producing a clean, rhythmic texture in paragraphs. Capitals are stately and evenly proportioned with sharp, tapered terminals, while the lowercase maintains a traditional book-face structure with compact joins and clear, conventional shapes. Numerals align with the same contrast model, mixing firm verticals with delicate curves and finishing details that read sharply at display sizes.
This face suits long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture and clear hierarchy are desired. It also works well for refined headlines, pull quotes, and chapter titles, especially when paired with ample leading to let the contrast breathe.
The overall tone feels classic and editorial—polished, composed, and quietly authoritative. Its contrast and pointed finishing details add a refined, slightly dramatic flavor without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that delivers a familiar literary voice with crisp detailing for print-like typography. It aims for a balanced, dependable reading rhythm while offering enough contrast and sharpness to carry elegant display settings.
Round letters show tight, controlled curves and relatively small apertures, giving text a dense, well-inked color. Diacritics and punctuation are not shown, but the sample text demonstrates consistent spacing and a steady baseline rhythm across mixed case and figures.
