A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, finely tapered hairlines. Serifs are sharp and wedge-like with subtle bracketing, and many strokes flare as they approach terminals, lending a sculpted, engraved feel. Counters are generous and round in letters like O and Q, while diagonals and joins stay clean and decisive; curves often finish in pointed, slightly calligraphic tips. Overall spacing reads open and confident, and the rhythm in text is driven by strong verticals punctuated by delicate hairline connections.
Well suited to editorial headlines, book cover typography, and branding where a sophisticated, high-contrast voice is desired. It will shine in larger sizes for titles, pull quotes, and premium packaging, and can also work for short text passages when ample size and comfortable leading are available.
The tone is refined and dramatic, balancing old-style bookishness with a fashion-forward edge. Its crisp terminals and stark contrast suggest luxury, ceremony, and authority, while the slight calligraphic influence keeps it from feeling purely mechanical.
Likely designed to deliver an elegant, contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif, using flared terminals and crisp serifs to create a premium, attention-grabbing texture. The goal appears to be strong headline presence with a polished, authoritative color in text.
Uppercase forms feel stately and display-oriented, with robust stems and crisp apexes, while the lowercase maintains readability through clear bowls and sturdy main strokes. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with elegant curves and sharp finishing strokes that stand out in headings and large sizes.
