A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and fine hairlines that create an airy color on the page. Serifs are bracketed and tapered, with crisp terminals and a calm, upright stance. Curves are smooth and slightly calligraphic in their transitions, while counters remain open and well-defined for text use. Overall proportions feel generously set with a measured rhythm, and the figures follow the same high-contrast, elegant construction as the letters.
Well-suited to book interiors, long-form editorial, and magazine typography where an elegant, classical serif is desired. It also fits refined branding, invitations, and other applications that benefit from a formal, high-contrast typographic voice, especially at comfortable text sizes or larger.
The tone is polished and traditional, evoking book typography and formal editorial settings. Its sharp hairlines and controlled contrast give it a cultured, refined voice suited to elevated, content-forward design.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with a refined, high-contrast drawing—aiming for a classic reading experience while adding a touch of sophistication through slender hairlines and carefully shaped serifs.
In the sample text, the light strokes and hairlines contribute to a bright typographic texture, while the sturdier verticals keep the forms from feeling brittle. The design reads as intentionally restrained rather than decorative, relying on proportion and contrast for character.
