A conventional serif with bracketed serifs and moderate stroke modulation. The letterforms show crisp, slightly sheared terminals and gently tapered joins that give the strokes a subtly calligraphic feel without becoming ornate. Capitals are proportioned for text use, with balanced widths and clear, open interior spaces; the lowercase is compact with a relatively low x-height and sturdy verticals. Curves are smooth and controlled, and the overall rhythm is even, supporting continuous reading while retaining a distinct, slightly sharpened edge in the serifs and terminals.
Well-suited to long-form reading environments such as book interiors, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif texture is desired. It can also serve for academic or institutional materials and for headings that benefit from a classic, composed look without heavy display styling.
The tone is classic and bookish, projecting authority and familiarity rather than trend-driven personality. It feels formal and composed, with a refined, traditional presence suitable for editorial typography.
The design appears intended as a dependable, traditional text serif: a familiar structure with moderate contrast and carefully shaped, bracketed serifs to create a stable, readable texture across paragraphs, while still offering enough sharpness in terminals to feel polished in titles.
Numerals follow the same text-oriented logic as the letters, with clear shapes and moderate contrast that keeps them legible at typical reading sizes. The sample text shows steady spacing and a calm line color, with enough crispness in the serifs to hold up in headings while remaining comfortable for paragraphs.
