A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and strong, slightly bracketed serifs. The overall construction is upright and rational, with pronounced vertical stems and a clear vertical stress that gives rounds (C, O, G) a sculpted, calligraphic sheen. Capitals feel stately and roomy, while lowercase forms keep a measured, bookish rhythm; counters are open and the joins are clean, producing a crisp texture at text sizes. Numerals follow the same contrast and elegance, with thin cross-strokes and refined curves that match the letterforms.
Well-suited to magazine typography, book covers, and headline work where high contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It also fits premium branding and event materials (such as invitations) that benefit from a composed, upscale serif presence.
The face projects an editorial, fashion-forward tone—polished, formal, and slightly dramatic. Its crisp contrast and refined serifs evoke established print traditions while still feeling contemporary in display settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, print-classic serif look with heightened contrast for elegance and emphasis, balancing readability with a distinctive, upscale display character.
Extremes of thick–thin contrast create a lively rhythm, especially in diagonals and curved letters, which read as elegant rather than rugged. The design maintains consistent finishing across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, supporting a cohesive typographic voice in mixed-content layouts.
