A high-contrast serif with sculpted, bracketed wedge serifs and crisp hairline joins. The forms are generously proportioned with a notably broad set in the capitals and rounded letters, creating a spacious texture, while strokes shift abruptly from thick verticals to fine horizontals. Curves are smooth and polished, terminals tend to be sharp and tapered, and the overall rhythm reads as stable and upright with a clean, print-like finish.
This style performs best in headlines, pull quotes, and editorial typography where contrast and sharp serifs can be appreciated. It also suits book covers, cultural branding, and premium packaging or identity systems that need a classic, authoritative voice with added visual drama.
The tone is formal and editorial, combining classical book-serifs with a more theatrical, display-forward contrast. It feels refined and authoritative, with a touch of dramatic elegance suited to luxury-leaning or literary settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading experience while pushing contrast and breadth to elevate impact. It aims to balance traditional letterform structure with sharper, more carved details for strong presence in display sizes.
In text, the strong thick–thin modulation and pointed serif treatment create pronounced sparkle and prominent word shapes. Numerals share the same contrast and sculpted detailing, helping headlines and short passages maintain a consistent, stately character.
