A high-contrast serif with sharp hairlines and weighty verticals, featuring bracketed wedge-like serifs and smooth, rational curves. Proportions feel moderately expansive, with generous counters and a steady, upright stance that keeps lines calm and readable. The lowercase shows a traditional structure (two-storey a and g), with compact joins, clean terminals, and a slightly calligraphic modulation that reinforces a polished text rhythm.
Well-suited to book typography, long-form editorial layouts, and magazine design where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for display headlines, pull quotes, and brand applications like packaging or labels that benefit from a refined, authoritative tone.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, conveying authority and refinement without feeling ornamental. Its crisp contrast and traditional letterforms suggest a bookish, institutional voice suited to cultured, formal communication.
The design appears intended to provide a conventional, highly polished serif for editorial and literary settings, balancing strong typographic presence with familiar, time-tested structures. Its contrast and crisp detailing suggest an emphasis on elegance and hierarchy in both text and display use.
In the samples, the strong stem/ hairline contrast creates pronounced sparkle at larger sizes, while the sturdy main strokes keep word shapes stable. Numerals appear text-oriented and traditional, aligning visually with the serif forms rather than a geometric or monoline approach.
