A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline serifs. The letterforms show generous horizontal proportions and open counters, with smooth, tapered joins and subtly bracketed terminals that keep the strokes from feeling mechanical. Curves are clean and controlled (notably in C/O/Q), while verticals remain steady and upright, producing an even, composed rhythm in text. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and fine finishing details.
Well-suited to magazine and editorial layouts, book covers, and cultured branding where elegance and contrast are desirable. It can also serve as a distinctive display serif for titles, pull quotes, and larger typographic moments, especially when given ample whitespace.
The overall tone is refined and literary, evoking traditional editorial typography and cultured formality. Its airy color and sharp detailing read as premium and elegant rather than sturdy or utilitarian, lending a quiet sophistication to headlines and well-spaced text settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional text-and-display serif with a sophisticated, high-contrast voice—aiming for classic readability while emphasizing elegance through fine serifs, wide proportions, and carefully sculpted curves.
In the sample text, the spacing and long serifs create a graceful, flowing line that benefits from comfortable tracking and leading. The very fine strokes and hairline serifs give a crisp, high-end look, but also make the design feel best when not forced into cramped conditions.
