A conventional serif with bracketed serifs, smooth curves, and a steady, book-oriented rhythm. Strokes show moderate contrast with clear thick–thin modulation and relatively open counters, keeping paragraphs legible at text sizes. Proportions are balanced rather than condensed, with a slightly generous set of capitals and straightforward, well-aligned lowercase. Terminals are mostly rounded or softly sheared, and the overall construction favors calm regularity over display eccentricity.
Well suited for book interiors, magazines, reports, and other longform reading where even texture and dependable serif structure are important. It can also support headings and pull quotes when a traditional, authoritative voice is desired without becoming overly formal.
The tone is classic and composed, evoking familiar literary and editorial typography. It reads as trustworthy and established, with a quiet refinement that suits content-forward design rather than attention-seeking branding.
The design appears intended as a general-purpose text serif focused on stability, readability, and typographic familiarity. Its moderate contrast and restrained detailing aim to perform cleanly in continuous reading while preserving a classic serif character.
The numerals and punctuation in the sample text sit comfortably with the letters, maintaining consistent color and spacing in running copy. Curved letters keep a smooth, controlled silhouette, while the serifs add a crisp baseline and clear word shapes.
