This typeface is a high-contrast serif with a crisp, contemporary cut and subtly flared stroke endings. Serifs are finely bracketed and taper to sharp points, while vertical stems read dominant against hairline horizontals and delicate joins. Capitals feel stately and balanced with clean, open counters; the lowercase shows a traditional book-face rhythm with compact, well-controlled curves and consistent modulation. Details like the ear and terminals lean calligraphic, with smooth transitions into thin strokes and a polished, print-oriented finish.
It performs well in editorial settings such as magazine features, book typography, and cultured headlines where contrast and fine serifs can be appreciated. It can also support premium branding and invitations, especially when paired with generous whitespace and careful tracking.
The overall tone is refined and editorial, combining classical book typography cues with a slightly sharpened, modern edge. It communicates seriousness and taste—suited to sophisticated narratives rather than overtly decorative display.
The design intent appears to be a modernized, high-contrast reading and display serif that delivers elegance and authority while maintaining a familiar literary structure. Flared terminals and sharp hairlines add distinction without breaking conventional text rhythm.
Figures appear lining and proportional, matching the text color and contrast of the letters. The design maintains clarity at larger text sizes, with hairlines and terminals that give it a luxurious, fashion-and-magazine feel when set with adequate size and spacing.
