A polished serif with pronounced stroke contrast and crisp, tapered serifs that read as lightly bracketed wedges rather than slabs. Curves are generous and smoothly drawn, while verticals stay steady, giving the design a confident, traditional rhythm. Uppercase forms feel stately and well-proportioned, with wide bowls and carefully controlled apertures; the lowercase is compact and text-oriented, with a two-storey "g" and "a" and a clear, structured "e". Figures appear lining and proportionally integrated with the caps, maintaining the same sharp terminals and contrast across the set.
Well-suited to book typography and editorial layouts where a classic serif voice and crisp contrast are desired. It can also serve effectively for magazine headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding applications where sharp terminals and a traditional text-serf structure convey authority and polish.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, suggesting formality without feeling austere. Its sharp finishing and sculpted contrast lend a refined, premium voice suited to literature, culture, and luxury-leaning communication. In paragraphs it feels composed and authoritative, with an understated elegance.
The font appears designed to deliver a conventional, literary serif experience with elevated contrast and precise finishing—balancing readability with a more fashionable, high-end texture. Its forms aim to feel familiar for continuous reading while providing enough sharpness and sculpting to stand out in editorial and display contexts.
The design leans on strong hairlines and pointed terminals, creating a bright, high-definition texture at display sizes while preserving a familiar book-serif structure in longer text. Diacritics and punctuation are not shown here, but the core alphabet demonstrates consistent contrast and serif treatment throughout.
