A compact serif with tall, slender proportions and tight lateral spacing that creates a distinctly vertical texture. Strokes show a moderate thick–thin relationship, with hairline-like joins and terminals that stay crisp rather than bracketed or heavy. Serifs are small and sharp, often wedge-like, and the curves (notably in C, G, and S) feel taut and controlled. The lowercase maintains a normal x-height relative to the long ascenders/descenders, giving the design a high-waisted, elegant rhythm. Numerals follow the same narrow, high-contrast logic, with clear, open counters and fine finishing details.
Well-suited to editorial typography—books, magazine features, and cultural journalism—where a refined serif voice and efficient width are useful. It can also work for elegant headlines, subheads, and pull quotes, especially when paired with generous leading to let its tall proportions breathe.
The overall tone is poised and traditional, suggesting bookish refinement and a slightly theatrical, old-style formality. Its narrow build reads as economical and classy, with a quiet sophistication suited to composed, voice-led typography rather than loud display.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, literary serif voice in a space-saving, vertically oriented form, balancing crisp detailing with enough contrast to feel polished and authoritative. It prioritizes a composed reading rhythm and a classic editorial character over overtly decorative quirks.
In paragraph settings the type forms a strong vertical cadence, with prominent capitals and long extenders that add sparkle and hierarchy. The thin joins and small serifs imply best results at comfortable sizes where the fine details can remain intact, while the compact letterforms help fit more text per line without feeling compressed.
