This typeface presents a crisp serif construction with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered stroke endings that subtly flare as they meet the serifs. Serifs are bracketed and sharp, with a generally calm, upright axis and smooth curves in rounds like C, O, and Q. Capitals feel stately and moderately wide, while lowercase shows traditional proportions with a two-storey a and g, open counters, and a delicate, hairline-prone detailing in joins and terminals. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven logic, with fine strokes and clean, pointed finishing that keeps the texture airy in text.
It suits magazine layouts, editorial typography, and book work where a refined serif texture is desired. The clean, high-contrast drawing also performs well in display applications such as headlines, pull quotes, and sophisticated branding where sharp detail can be shown.
The overall tone is polished and editorial, combining classic bookish manners with a slightly fashionable, high-end sharpness. It reads as confident and cultivated rather than quirky, lending a sense of authority and restraint.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic serif: crisp, high-contrast letterforms with flared, bracketed finishing that adds elegance and definition. It prioritizes a composed reading rhythm and a premium, print-forward presence.
In the sample text, the strong contrast creates a lively vertical rhythm and bright page color, especially at larger sizes. The tapered terminals and flared endings add character without becoming decorative, keeping the voice formal and controlled.
