A traditional serif with bracketed, slightly flared serifs and a gently calligraphic stroke model. Strokes show modest contrast with soft transitions, and the curves feel drawn rather than constructed. Counters are moderately open, terminals are often sheared or tapered, and the overall rhythm is slightly irregular in an organic, bookish way. Uppercase forms are stately and compact, while lowercase features a two-storey “g” and a two-storey “a,” with sturdy stems and rounded bowls that keep text color even.
Well suited to body text in books and long-form editorial layouts where a familiar serif texture and comfortable rhythm are desirable. It also works for headlines, pull quotes, and institutional communications when a classic, authoritative voice is needed without high-contrast delicacy.
The tone is classic and literary, evoking printed books, editorial writing, and institutional materials. It reads as trustworthy and cultivated rather than flashy, with a subtly historic flavor that adds warmth and personality in continuous text.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif that prioritizes readability and an established, bookish character. Its moderated contrast and bracketed serifs aim for steady color in paragraphs while preserving a subtle hand-influenced warmth.
The figures follow the same oldstyle-leaning, slightly calligraphic logic as the letters, with curved joints and tapered endings that keep them cohesive in text. Curved letters like C, S, and G emphasize soft modulation and bracketed finishing, reinforcing a traditional, print-oriented feel.
