A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a pronounced thick–thin rhythm. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, while terminals and joins feel sharply finished, giving the shapes a sculpted, print-like presence. Proportions are relatively compact with sturdy capitals, and the lowercase shows traditional forms with clear counters and a steady baseline rhythm suited to paragraph setting. Numerals and punctuation match the strong contrast and refined detailing, maintaining consistent color and spacing in text.
Well-suited for editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and classic headline work where a refined serif voice is desired. It can also support premium branding and packaging when a traditional, authoritative impression is needed, especially at display and subhead sizes.
The tone is classic and editorial, projecting formality and confidence. Its strong contrast and crisp finishing lend a refined, somewhat dramatic voice that feels at home in literary or institutional contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text-serif foundation with heightened contrast and crisp finishing for a more luxurious, print-oriented feel. It balances classic proportions with a stronger typographic presence, aiming for clarity and elegance in editorial settings.
In running text, the heavy stems and thin hairlines create a striking page texture, with emphasis naturally landing on verticals and key curves. The design reads best when given enough size or resolution for the fine strokes to remain clean, and the overall rhythm favors traditional, bookish typography over casual or utilitarian signage.
