A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. The serifs are fine and delicately bracketed, giving stems a sculpted, calligraphic finish rather than a blunt cut. Capitals feel stately and open, with generous interior space and a smooth, even rhythm across the alphabet. Lowercase forms are elegant and slightly lively, with narrow joins, flowing bowls, and a noticeable contrast between hairline curves and heavier verticals; numerals follow the same polished, editorial tone with thin crossbars and carefully shaped curves.
Well suited to magazine and editorial layouts, pull quotes, and elegant headlines where contrast and detail can shine. It also fits luxury-oriented branding, packaging, and event materials that benefit from a classic, high-polish serif voice. In longer text, it will reward comfortable sizes and print or high-resolution rendering where fine strokes remain clear.
The overall tone is sophisticated and composed, evoking high-end editorial design and luxury branding. Its sharp hairlines and poised proportions communicate precision and exclusivity, while the classic serif structure keeps it rooted in traditional book and magazine typography.
Designed to deliver a contemporary take on a classic serif with an emphasis on dramatic modulation, refined terminals, and a poised reading rhythm. The letterforms prioritize elegance and visual impact while preserving conventional proportions that keep settings orderly and familiar.
At text sizes the hairlines and delicate serifs read as intentional refinement, while at larger sizes the dramatic modulation becomes a key visual feature. The typeface maintains consistent contrast and terminal treatment across letters and figures, producing a cohesive, polished texture in paragraphs and headlines.
