A high-contrast serif with sculpted, wedge-like terminals and crisp hairline connections. Stems are stout and confident while the thins taper quickly into fine serifs, creating a pronounced light–dark rhythm. The letterforms favor elegant, slightly condensed proportions with smooth, controlled curves; joins and terminals often resolve into pointed, triangular finishes rather than blunt slabs. Lowercase shows a traditional, readable structure with a moderate x-height and clear differentiation between rounds and straights, while numerals follow the same sharp contrast and refined finishing.
Best suited to headlines, magazine layouts, pull quotes, and brand identities where strong contrast and refined detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for upscale packaging, invitations, and title treatments that benefit from a classic-but-fashion-forward serif voice.
The overall tone is polished and editorial, projecting a sense of luxury and formality. Its dramatic contrast and sharp finishing add a stylish, high-fashion edge while remaining rooted in classic book and magazine typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary editorial serif feel: authoritative and readable in structure, but elevated through extreme contrast and sharply articulated terminals for striking display impact.
At display sizes the thin strokes and delicate serifs read as intentional and precise, emphasizing a sleek, modern-classical elegance. The design’s pointed terminals and tight stroke modulation give it a crisp texture that stands out in headlines and short passages.
