A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs that taper into sharp terminals. Curves are smoothly modeled with vertical stress, giving rounds (C, O, Q) a polished, editorial sheen. Capitals feel stately and slightly narrow in rhythm, while lowercase forms are compact with a moderate x-height and clear ascender/descender structure. The design keeps a consistent, disciplined texture in running text, with sturdy stems anchoring hairline cross-strokes and finely cut joins.
Well suited to editorial layouts, magazine headlines, and book titling where contrast and refinement are desirable. It also fits formal communications such as invitations, branding wordmarks, and pull quotes, especially when set with generous spacing and at sizes that let the hairlines breathe.
The overall tone is composed and authoritative, with a cultured, print-forward character. Its high-contrast detailing and sharp finishing cues read as elegant and formal, evoking bookish and magazine aesthetics rather than utilitarian UI styling.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast text serif that brings traditional typographic polish to contemporary layout work. It balances a classic structure with sharp, modern finishing to deliver a confident, premium reading voice.
The numerals carry the same high-contrast, sculpted logic as the letters, with open counters and sharp finishing that help them sit comfortably alongside text. Diacritics and punctuation in the sample read clean and precise, supporting a crisp typographic color when set at display and larger text sizes.
