This typeface is a wide-set serif with gently flared stroke endings and smooth, tapered joins. Strokes stay relatively even, with subtle modulation that reads as calm rather than calligraphic. Counters are generous and rounded, and the overall letterfit feels spacious, giving the forms a clean, open rhythm. Uppercase shapes are broad and poised (notably the round letters), while the lowercase keeps simple constructions and clear, uncluttered details; numerals follow the same airy, high-clarity approach.
It suits magazine headlines, editorial typography, and premium brand communication where a refined but contemporary serif voice is needed. The wide proportions and open counters also make it effective for posters, packaging, and large-format statements where an airy, upscale feel is desired.
The overall tone is polished and modern-classic, balancing restraint with a hint of sophistication from the flared terminals. It feels calm, premium, and editorial, with an understated elegance that avoids overt historical ornament.
The design appears intended to provide a contemporary serif with flared, gently sculpted endings—delivering elegance and clarity while keeping the overall construction minimal and highly legible at larger sizes.
The flaring is most evident at stroke endings and on horizontals, creating a soft serif presence without heavy bracketed detailing. Round letters appear especially open and stable, and the wide proportions contribute to a confident, leisurely pacing in text and display.
