A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and fuller main strokes, showing a subtly calligraphic modulation throughout. Serifs are bracketed and often flare gently out of stems, creating tapered, sculpted terminals rather than blunt slabs. The overall color is clean and open, with relatively generous counters and a steady baseline rhythm; curves are smooth and oval, and joins stay sharp and well-defined. Uppercase proportions feel stately and slightly narrow, while lowercase forms keep a traditional, bookish structure with compact apertures and neatly finished endings.
It fits well in editorial settings such as magazine typography, book interiors, and essay-style layouts, especially where a traditional serif voice is desired. The crisp contrast and sculpted terminals also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and refined brand wordmarks.
The tone is classic and editorial, projecting refinement and authority without feeling overly ornate. Its sharp contrast and flared finishing give it a slightly dramatic, literary character—suited to serious, cultured contexts where elegance matters.
The design appears intended to modernize a classical serif foundation by emphasizing contrast and adding gently flared, tapered endings for a more sculptural, contemporary finish. The goal seems to be a versatile literary face that can read as both traditional and distinctive in display use.
In the sample text, the font maintains clarity at larger sizes, with strong vertical emphasis and distinctive stroke modulation that adds texture. Numerals appear lining and proportional, matching the same contrast and serif treatment for a cohesive typographic palette.
