A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and weighty vertical stems, producing a sharp, polished rhythm. Serifs are bracketed and tapered, with pointed terminals and wedge-like joins that give many letters a carved, calligraphic finish. The round letters show a vertical stress and tight, clean counters, while diagonals and arms stay thin and precise against the heavy main strokes. Lowercase forms appear relatively compact with sturdy bowls and elegant entry/exit strokes, and the numerals echo the same dramatic thick–thin modulation and sharp detailing.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other editorial settings where its high contrast can shine. It also fits branding and packaging that aim for a premium, traditional voice, and works well for book covers and posters that benefit from crisp, sculptural letterforms.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, with a sense of luxury and drama driven by the strong contrast and razor-like details. It reads as classic and authoritative, leaning toward fashion and cultural publishing rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classical serif formality: strong vertical emphasis, elegant hairlines, and carefully shaped serifs that create a high-end, publication-ready texture. Its detailing prioritizes visual sophistication and impact over purely utilitarian neutrality.
In display sizes the fine hairlines and delicate serifs become a key feature, giving the face a refined sparkle and a slightly theatrical presence. The design maintains a consistent, disciplined structure across caps, lowercase, and figures, with a smooth baseline rhythm and a distinctly sharp silhouette.
