This is a refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a strongly vertical rhythm. Stems are sturdy while horizontals and serifs taper to delicate hairlines, producing crisp joints and sharp terminals. Serifs are small and precise with minimal bracketing, and counters tend to be compact, giving the face a taut, composed texture. Proportions skew toward taller capitals and a relatively small lowercase, with a noticeably short x-height and narrow internal apertures in letters like e, a, and s. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven structure, mixing firm verticals with fine cross-strokes for a clean, print-oriented profile.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine features, pull quotes, and book or journal titling where contrast can add sophistication. It also fits branding for fashion, beauty, or luxury goods, and formal materials like invitations and programs. For extended small text, it will generally perform best when set with comfortable size and leading to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and authoritative, with a fashionable, high-end sensibility. Its contrast and fine detailing read as cultured and ceremonial, leaning toward luxury and tradition rather than casual utility.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic, high-contrast serif modeling—prioritizing elegance, vertical discipline, and sharp detailing for sophisticated display and editorial settings.
The lowercase shows a classic bookish construction with a double-storey g and a compact, upright a, while the italic-like liveliness is restrained in favor of symmetry and vertical alignment. The design’s delicate serifs and thin connecting strokes suggest it benefits from generous sizing and spacing, where the sharp details can remain distinct.
