This serif shows pronounced stroke modulation with crisp transitions between thick stems and hairline links. Serifs are bracketed and finely tapered, giving terminals a sharp, sculpted finish. Counters are relatively open and the overall color stays clean despite the high contrast, with rounded forms (like O/C) reading smooth and stable. The lowercase features traditional book-style details, including a double-storey a and g, a narrow, delicate f, and compact joins that keep text lines even.
Well suited to editorial design, long-form reading, and publication typography where high-contrast serifs add sophistication. It also performs convincingly in display roles—headlines, pull quotes, and deck copy—where its sharp serifs and refined modulation create strong typographic hierarchy.
The tone is refined and editorial, blending classical book typography with a slightly dramatic, fashion-forward contrast. It feels confident and formal without becoming ornate, suited to settings that benefit from polish and authority.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with elevated contrast and crisp finishing, aiming for a premium publishing voice. It prioritizes readable, traditional letterforms while adding a more dramatic stroke rhythm for contemporary editorial impact.
Capitals have a measured, dignified presence with clear vertical stress and carefully controlled spacing. Numerals mix strong stems with hairline curves, maintaining the same contrast logic as the letters, which helps headings and pull quotes feel cohesive with body text.
