A high-contrast serif with sharp, tapered terminals and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The serifs read as compact and wedge-like with subtle bracketing, and many joins flare slightly as strokes meet, giving stems a sculpted, chiseled feel. Capitals are stately with clean vertical stress, while the lowercase shows tight, controlled curves and crisp entry/exit strokes; overall spacing feels even and text color is dense without becoming heavy. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, with slender diagonals and strong main strokes that keep figures clear at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other editorial display settings where contrast and sharp detailing can read cleanly. It can also work for refined branding or book-cover typography, and for short passages in print or high-resolution digital layouts where its crisp terminals and modulation remain distinct.
The tone is formal and editorial, with a poised, bookish elegance and a touch of theatrical contrast. It suggests tradition and authority while still feeling lively due to its sharp terminals and calligraphic energy.
Designed to deliver a classic, high-contrast reading of serif letterforms with flared joins and pointed terminals that add sophistication and drama. The intention appears to balance traditional proportions with a more sculptural, energetic finish for contemporary editorial use.
Curves (notably in C, G, S, and the bowls of a/e) show a consistent, slightly calligraphic stress that enhances rhythm in continuous text. The italic is not shown; the upright roman style dominates the voice presented here.
