A crisp, high-contrast text face with strongly vertical stress and clear thick–thin modulation throughout. Stems are straight and steady, while joins and bowls transition into hairline connections that stay clean at display sizes. The design uses bracketed serifs with sharp, tapered finishing and occasional ball terminals, giving letters a polished, slightly calligraphic cadence. Proportions are moderately wide with open counters and a controlled rhythm, and the numerals echo the same contrast and vertical emphasis.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, and editorial typography where its contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for book covers and upscale branding systems that want a modern-classic voice, especially in larger sizes or high-quality print and high-resolution digital settings.
The overall tone feels editorial and refined, with a measured formality suited to elegant communication. Its sharp finishing and bright hairlines project confidence and a contemporary take on classic book typography, reading as composed rather than playful.
The design appears intended to deliver a sophisticated, high-contrast reading voice with strong vertical structure and elegant finishing, balancing traditional proportions with crisp, contemporary detailing for editorial-forward typography.
The italic is not shown; the samples suggest a roman that favors crisp, sculpted curves (notably in C/G/S) and decorative touches in a few glyphs (such as the Q and some lowercase terminals) without becoming ornate. At smaller sizes the hairlines may require adequate rendering and sufficient size/contrast in layout to maintain clarity.
