A high-contrast serif with sharp, tapered hairlines set against sturdy vertical stems and gently bracketed serifs. The uppercase shows classical proportions and crisp terminals, with round letters built on an elliptical stress and clean, open counters. Lowercase forms keep a relatively traditional skeleton with pronounced thick–thin rhythm, while extenders and joins remain neat and controlled, giving the design a polished, print-oriented texture.
Well suited to editorial settings such as magazine titles, feature headings, pull quotes, and book covers where its contrast can read cleanly. It also fits premium branding and packaging, invitations, and other high-end applications that benefit from a refined, classical serif voice.
The overall tone is poised and sophisticated, reading as editorial and cultivated rather than casual. Its dramatic contrast and crisp details convey a sense of luxury and formality, evoking traditional book and magazine typography with a contemporary cleanness.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a traditional high-contrast text serif: elegant in silhouette, disciplined in construction, and capable of strong presence in display typography while maintaining a familiar reading rhythm.
At larger sizes the fine hairlines and delicate serifs become a defining feature, producing a sparkling page color and strong vertical emphasis. The numerals appear proportionally aligned with the text style, matching the same contrasty, elegant construction for cohesive headings and figures.
