A classic serif with bracketed, tapered serifs and gently modulated strokes. The forms show a traditional, book-oriented construction: open counters, smooth joins, and softly rounded curves paired with crisp terminals. Proportions feel balanced and moderately condensed in some letters, with steady rhythm in text. Lowercase features include a double-storey “a,” a single-storey “g” with a pronounced ear, and a “t” with a modest crossbar, reinforcing a conventional reading texture.
Well suited to extended reading environments such as book interiors, editorial layouts, and long-form articles where an even, familiar serif texture supports legibility. It can also serve confidently in formal documents, academic or cultural materials, and headline-to-text pairings that call for a traditional, polished serif.
The overall tone is established and literary, projecting a calm authority associated with books and formal publishing. Its restrained contrast and traditional detailing give it a dependable, cultivated voice rather than a trendy or decorative one.
The design appears intended as a dependable, conventional text serif that prioritizes readability and typographic familiarity. Its moderated stroke modulation and bracketed serifs aim to produce an even color on the page while retaining a refined, classical character.
Capitals have a poised, slightly calligraphic presence—noticeable in the sweeping “Q” tail and the cleanly shaped diagonals of “V/W/Y.” Numerals appear lining and proportional, with clear differentiation and classic serif detailing for comfortable use in running text and headings.
