A high-contrast serif with vertical stress and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Stems are sturdy while hairlines and serifs get very fine, producing a crisp, sparkling texture in text. Serifs read as sharp and relatively unbracketed, with clean joins and tapered terminals that keep the letterforms feeling precise rather than soft. Proportions lean slightly narrow and refined, with compact bowls and a steady, upright rhythm that holds together in display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and larger-size typography where its fine hairlines and sharp serifs can be clearly reproduced. It also fits book covers, magazine mastheads, and formal collateral where a classic, high-contrast voice is desirable; for long passages, it will typically perform best with comfortable size and line spacing.
The overall tone is polished and classical, with a distinctly editorial sophistication. Its sharp hairlines and formal posture evoke traditional book and magazine typography, leaning more elegant than rustic or casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional, high-contrast serif look with strong vertical emphasis and refined detailing, prioritizing elegance and clarity in display and editorial settings. The consistent modulation and crisp terminals suggest a focus on a composed, print-like aesthetic with a confident, formal presence.
In the sample text, contrast and delicate serifs become the dominant visual feature, creating a bright, high-definition silhouette. Spacing appears even and deliberate, and the design maintains a consistent stress and modulation across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, giving paragraphs a structured, authoritative presence.
