A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered main strokes and hairline connecting strokes that create a bright, crisp texture. Serifs are bracketed and often wedge-like, with pointed terminals and clear calligraphic modulation, especially visible in diagonals and curves. Proportions run slightly wide with steady, upright construction; counters are open and round, and the overall rhythm feels measured and deliberate. Numerals and capitals carry pronounced stroke contrast and sculpted joins, giving the design a polished, print-oriented presence.
Well suited to editorial design, magazine typography, and book titles where high contrast can contribute sophistication and hierarchy. It also fits premium branding, packaging, and formal stationery where a classic serif voice is desired. For longer passages, it will look best where reproduction is clean enough to preserve its fine hairlines.
The tone is sophisticated and editorial, balancing traditional bookish authority with a fashionable, high-end sheen. Its sharp hairlines and sculpted serifs add a sense of drama and refinement, suggesting luxury and formality without feeling ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional text-serif foundation with heightened contrast and sharper detailing for a more luxurious, contemporary editorial feel. Its wide stance and crisp serifs suggest an emphasis on elegant presence and strong typographic hierarchy across headlines and supporting text.
In paragraph settings the thin hairlines and pointed terminals become a defining feature, creating a sparkling contrast that stands out at display and strong text sizes. The lowercase has a conventional, readable structure with clear differentiation between similar forms, while capitals look stately and slightly expansive.
