A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines, sturdy vertical stems, and distinctly bracketed wedge serifs. The letterforms feel carefully drawn with a slightly calligraphic stress, giving curves a sculpted, energetic modulation. Capitals are stately and wide-set with sharp apexes and clean, tapered joins, while the lowercase shows a traditional rhythm with compact bowls, a two-storey a, and a single-storey g with a pronounced ear. Numerals are oldstyle in feel, with varied widths and lively curves that keep the texture animated in running text.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, essays, and book interiors, where a classic serif voice and lively contrast are desired. It also performs convincingly for refined headlines, pull quotes, and formal communications that benefit from a traditional, high-end tone.
The overall tone is classical and literary, projecting refinement and authority without looking overly ornate. Its contrast and sharp detailing lend a sense of seriousness and polish that reads as bookish and editorial.
The design appears intended as a contemporary take on a conventional text serif: prioritizing a recognizable, classical structure while using pronounced contrast and crisp serif detailing to add elegance and presence in both display and reading sizes.
In the sample text, the strong verticals and fine serifs create a confident page color at larger sizes, while the narrow hairlines and tight interior spaces suggest it will reward careful spacing and sufficient size in denser settings. The italic is not shown; the displayed style maintains an even, upright cadence throughout.
