A refined serif with crisp, high-contrast strokes and a gently calligraphic construction. Serifs are bracketed and often subtly flared, giving terminals a sharp yet fluid finish. Round letters show smooth modulation and a slightly oval stress, while capitals feel stately and proportioned for display with clean joins and tapered curves. Lowercase forms read evenly with moderate ascenders and descenders, and a clear rhythm that keeps text structured without feeling rigid.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book titles, and feature headlines where a sophisticated serif voice is desired. It can also support premium branding, packaging, and formal materials like invitations or programs, especially when set with comfortable spacing and used at sizes that let its fine details remain clear.
The overall tone is elegant and cultured, with a bookish, editorial voice. Its sharp modulation and tapered details suggest formality and polish, while the soft, humanist curvature keeps it warm rather than austere. The result feels suited to classic, high-end communication where restraint and refinement are key.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif tradition with a contemporary, polished finish. Its controlled contrast, tapered terminals, and balanced proportions aim to deliver elegance in display settings while retaining enough regularity for extended reading in carefully typeset text.
In the sample text, the contrast and fine hairlines become more pronounced at larger sizes, emphasizing a delicate, upscale character. Numerals follow the same sharp, tapered logic, and round forms (like 0, 8, 9) echo the font’s smooth, controlled curves.
