A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered strokes and pronounced thick-to-thin transitions. Serifs are sharp and often subtly bracketed, with wedge-like terminals that give the outlines a cut, incisive finish. The proportions feel slightly expansive with generous bowls and open counters, while the overall rhythm remains steady and upright. Curves are smooth and controlled, and several joins show a faint calligraphic influence, producing a refined, print-oriented texture in text.
It suits editorial design, magazine layouts, and display typography where its contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for refined branding, book covers, and formal invitations, particularly at medium-to-large sizes or in well-printed contexts where thin strokes remain clear.
The font reads as polished and traditional, with a distinctly editorial elegance. Its sharp finishing and dramatic modulation bring a sense of luxury and authority, evoking fashion publishing and classical book typography rather than casual everyday UI tone.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography, emphasizing elegance, sharp finishing, and a premium print sensibility. It balances traditional structure with a slightly stylized, calligraphic edge to feel distinctive without becoming decorative.
In continuous text the strong contrast creates a lively sparkle, especially around rounded forms and the pointed, sculpted terminals. The numerals match the letterforms’ contrast and serif treatment, helping maintain a consistent typographic color across mixed alphanumeric settings.
