A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and sturdy verticals, featuring bracketed serifs that subtly flare into the stems. The forms are upright and relatively compact, with a steady baseline rhythm and clear stress reminiscent of broad-nib influence. Uppercase shapes are sculpted and formal, while the lowercase shows generous, open counters and neatly tapered joins; the overall texture is smooth and controlled rather than mechanical. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, with curved figures showing thin connecting hairlines and confident thick strokes.
Best suited for display and editorial applications where contrast and detail can be appreciated: magazine headlines, book or chapter titles, pull quotes, and refined brand marks. It can also work for short passages at comfortable text sizes, particularly in print-oriented layouts that benefit from a classic, high-contrast serif texture.
The font projects a polished, bookish sophistication with a distinctly editorial tone. Its sharp details and bright, high-contrast color feel premium and composed, lending an air of tradition without looking overly ornate.
Designed to deliver a classic serif voice with heightened contrast and carefully modeled terminals, balancing formal uppercase presence with readable, open lowercase forms. The intent appears to be an elegant, publication-ready face that signals refinement and authority.
At larger sizes, the fine hairlines and pointed terminals become a defining feature, giving the face a sparkling, engraved quality. The flared behavior at stroke endings adds warmth and a slightly calligraphic finish, softening the otherwise crisp geometry.
