A tightly proportioned serif with pronounced stroke modulation and crisp, wedge-like serifs that often flare from the stems. Vertical strokes feel dominant and steady, while hairlines stay fine and clean, creating a sharp light–dark rhythm. Capitals are compact and stately with pointed apexes and narrow internal counters; lowercase maintains a traditional structure with a moderate x-height and clear ascenders/descenders. Curves (C, G, O, S) show controlled, sculpted tension, and many joins taper into subtly flared endings, giving the design a carved, calligraphic finish.
Best suited to display sizes where the crisp contrast and sculpted serifs can be appreciated—magazine headlines, book and album covers, brand marks, and poster typography. It can also work for short pull quotes or section headers, particularly in print or high-resolution digital settings.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, balancing old-style sophistication with a slightly theatrical, high-contrast punch. It reads as premium and authoritative, with a refined sharpness that suits serious or elevated messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with added drama through tight proportions, strong contrast, and flared, wedge-like finishing strokes—aiming for a distinctive editorial presence that feels both traditional and sharp.
In the text sample, the strong contrast and compact widths create dense, high-impact lines, especially in all-caps and title-case settings. Numerals appear similarly sculpted and weighty, matching the letterforms’ crisp terminals and contrast.
