A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered strokes and finely bracketed serifs. The letterforms show a strong vertical axis and clear modulation from thick stems to hairline horizontals, giving capitals a stately, carved feel. Lowercase combines compact, rounded bowls with sharp entry/exit terminals and a slightly lively, calligraphic rhythm; the two-storey a and g and the firm, wedge-like feet add structure. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, mixing sturdy verticals with delicate curves and terminals for a cohesive, traditional texture.
Well suited to editorial design, long-form reading, and book or journal typography where a classic serif texture is desired. It also performs convincingly for display use—chapter titles, pull quotes, and magazine headlines—where the sharp contrast and sculpted serifs can provide a premium, authoritative voice.
The overall tone is classical and cultivated, evoking traditional book typography and institutional polish. Its sharp hairlines and poised curves communicate refinement and seriousness, while the subtly energetic terminals keep it from feeling sterile.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that balances readability with an elevated, traditional character. Its consistent modulation, classic proportions, and carefully shaped serifs suggest an aim toward literary and editorial settings where typographic dignity is important.
Capitals read particularly monumental due to wide interior spaces and prominent serifs, while the lowercase maintains a clear baseline presence with decisive terminals. The design’s contrast and fine details reward larger sizes, where the hairlines and bracket transitions are most apparent.
