This serif design features delicate hairlines paired with firm, straight stems and a noticeably vertical stress. Serifs are sharp and finely tapered, with restrained bracketing that keeps joins clean and precise. Curves are smooth and open—particularly in C, G, and O—while terminals and cross-strokes remain slim, contributing to an overall light, airy texture. Proportions are condensed with a tall, composed stance; uppercase forms are stately, and lowercase maintains a traditional rhythm with a relatively modest x-height and clear ascenders and descenders.
Well-suited to editorial and book-oriented typography where a refined, traditional serif voice is desired. It can perform effectively for magazine features, culture writing, and elegant invitations or identity work, especially at sizes where its hairlines and crisp serifs have room to breathe.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking bookish sophistication and classic editorial restraint. Its high-contrast, finely cut details read as formal and elegant rather than casual, giving text a composed, premium feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-end reading experience with a modern crispness—balancing traditional serif construction with a lighter, more luminous texture. Its narrow proportions suggest an aim for economy of space without sacrificing formality and elegance.
In text, the font produces a bright page color with pronounced stroke modulation, making spacing and line length feel important to maintain evenness. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and vertical posture, supporting a consistent typographic voice across mixed content.
