A high-contrast serif with crisp vertical stress, sharp hairlines, and sturdier main stems. Serifs are clearly defined and mostly bracketed, giving joins a smooth, carved-in feel rather than abrupt slabs. Capitals are proportionally broad with confident, classical construction, while lowercase forms show a moderate x-height and traditional proportions with compact bowls and clean, tapered terminals. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are fairly open for a high-contrast style, and spacing reads even with a steady text rhythm across the sample paragraph.
Well-suited to editorial design, magazine and journal typography, and book layouts where a classic serif voice and strong contrast enhance hierarchy. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding applications that benefit from a polished, traditional presence.
The overall tone is refined and editorial, balancing elegance with a firm, traditional authority. Its contrast and sharp detailing suggest a premium, print-oriented voice that feels composed and deliberate rather than casual or playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, print-leaning serif texture with pronounced contrast and disciplined proportions, offering a timeless reading rhythm while still providing enough sharpness for impactful display use.
Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with clear stroke modulation and distinctive silhouettes that suit display and text settings. The italic is not shown; in the provided upright forms, diagonal strokes (like in K, V, W, X, Y) stay clean and sharp without soft rounding, reinforcing a precise, formal character.
