A refined, high-contrast serif with slender hairlines and robust vertical stems, producing a crisp, print-like texture. Serifs are finely tapered and mostly bracketed, giving terminals a sharp but traditional finish. Proportions feel condensed overall, with tall capitals and a steady, vertical axis; curves are clean and controlled, and joins stay tight and deliberate. The lowercase shows a moderate x-height with compact apertures and a disciplined rhythm, while figures appear lining with strong contrast and vertical emphasis.
Well suited to editorial headlines, book and journal titling, and other applications where a classic serif voice is needed with a sleek, contemporary finish. It can also serve branding and packaging for premium or heritage-leaning products, and works effectively for posters and prominent typographic statements.
The tone is polished and editorial, evoking traditional book typography and fashion-led display work. Its sharp contrast and narrow stance communicate sophistication and authority, with a slightly dramatic edge that reads as premium and formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text-serif foundation with elevated contrast and a condensed, display-friendly presence. It prioritizes elegance and vertical structure, aiming for strong headline performance while retaining a familiar, literary feel.
In setting, the dark verticals create a strong columnar rhythm, while the thin hairlines add sparkle at larger sizes. The design’s tight counters and delicate details suggest it will look best with comfortable tracking and enough size to preserve its fine strokes, especially in dense text.
