A high-contrast serif with upright posture, pronounced vertical stress, and crisp, sharply cut serifs. Thick main stems pair with very fine hairline connectors, creating a strong light–dark rhythm and a distinctly sculpted texture in text. Proportions are expansive with generous widths and clear interior counters, while curves (notably in C, G, S, and the bowls of B/P/R) show tight, controlled transitions from thick to thin. Lowercase forms remain straightforward and print-oriented, with compact joins and small, clean finishing strokes that keep letterforms crisp at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, magazine titling, book covers, posters, and brand marks where dramatic contrast and a classic serif voice are desirable. It can work for short passages or pull quotes when set large enough to preserve the fine hairline details.
The overall tone is confident and traditional, with a dramatic, high-contrast elegance that reads as editorial and institutional. Its weight and wide stance add a sense of authority, while the fine hairlines contribute a refined, formal character.
The design appears aimed at delivering a traditional serif voice with heightened contrast and width for impact, combining refined hairlines with heavy verticals to create an assertive, editorial display texture.
In the sample text, the font produces a dense, emphatic typographic color where verticals dominate and hairlines add sparkle; spacing appears tuned for display, with strong word shapes and prominent serifs. The numerals and capitals share the same bold presence and sharply defined contrast, supporting attention-grabbing headlines and short blocks of copy.
