A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a distinctly vertical stress. The serifs are fine and sharply cut, with a mostly bracketed connection that reads clean rather than overly calligraphic. Capitals are proportioned for display with confident, wide bowls and crisp apexes, while the lowercase keeps a steady x-height and clear counters. Stroke endings and joins are precise, giving the letterforms a polished, print-oriented look, and spacing feels even in the sample text with a rhythmic, column-like texture.
Best suited to headlines, magazine layouts, and other editorial typography where its contrast and sharp serifs can read large and clean. It also works well for book covers, invitations, and premium branding, especially when paired with generous leading and careful tracking for comfortable readability.
The overall tone is poised and authoritative, with a fashion/editorial refinement that reads premium and traditional. The strong contrast and crisp detailing add a sense of ceremony and sophistication, suitable for formal or high-end contexts.
The font appears intended as a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast text serif, balancing traditional proportions with crisp, modern finishing. It aims to deliver a refined, authoritative voice for publishing and brand-forward display while maintaining an orderly text rhythm.
The design shows noticeable width variation across glyphs (narrower forms alongside broader rounds), which adds a lively typographic color in text. Numerals match the same contrast and sharp finishing, aligning well with the capitals for mixed editorial settings.
