A refined text serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and crisp, bracketed hairline serifs. The letterforms show smooth, calligraphic modulation with tapered joins, sharp terminals, and a gently vertical stress, producing a clean, high-end rhythm. Proportions lean open and slightly expansive, with ample counters and carefully controlled curves; capitals feel stately and sculpted while the lowercase maintains an even, readable texture.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, literary publishing, and long-form layouts where a bright, elegant texture is desired. It also performs strongly for display uses—headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding—especially at larger sizes where the hairline details and contrast can shine.
The overall tone is polished and literary, suggesting tradition, formality, and a premium editorial sensibility. Its high-contrast detailing and fine serifs give it a graceful, fashion-forward elegance rather than a utilitarian or rugged feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a conventional text serif: crisp, high-contrast forms with classical proportions that read as both readable and luxurious. It aims to balance page-level clarity with sophisticated detailing for premium editorial and brand-driven settings.
Uppercase forms are dignified and relatively spacious, with strong verticals and delicately finished horizontals. The lowercase shows classic text-serif cues, including a two-storey “a” and “g,” narrow hairline crossbars, and tidy, slightly tapered strokes that keep the page color bright. Numerals appear similarly high-contrast and refined, with clear differentiation and a consistent, understated finish.
