A high-contrast serif with sharp, tapered hairlines and weighty verticals, showing a distinctly calligraphic stress. Serifs are wedge-like and often feel subtly flared, with clean, crisp joins and pointed apexes on forms like A and V. The lowercase uses compact, sturdy bowls with delicate entry/exit strokes; several letters show teardrop-like terminals and gently cupped finishes that add sparkle without becoming ornamental. Overall spacing and rhythm feel text-ready, while the strong thick–thin modulation keeps the texture lively and bright at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and larger text where its thin hairlines can stay intact—magazine layouts, book covers, cultural posters, and refined brand identities. It can work for short passages in print-oriented settings, but the extreme contrast suggests avoiding very small sizes or low-resolution environments where hairlines may fade.
The tone is refined and editorial, balancing classical bookish authority with a fashionable, high-contrast drama. It reads as polished and literary, with a slightly theatrical edge that suits premium, curated contexts rather than utilitarian UI.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic serif voice with heightened contrast and subtly flared finishing strokes, creating a luxurious, editorial texture that feels contemporary while grounded in traditional letterforms.
Round characters (O, o, 8, 9) emphasize contrast through very fine top/bottom hairlines, while diagonals (N, W, x) remain crisp and controlled. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with sculpted curves and sharp terminals that keep them visually consistent alongside uppercase headlines.
