A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and strong, sculpted main strokes. Serifs are fine and sharply finished with subtle bracketing, giving terminals a crisp, cut-in feel rather than blunt slabs. The proportions read as traditional and slightly condensed in rhythm, with a calm vertical stress and smooth curve transitions. Uppercase forms feel stately and controlled, while the lowercase shows compact, text-oriented shapes and narrow joins that keep the texture even at larger sizes.
This style works best in editorial settings—magazines, book titling, and display typography where contrast and finesse can be appreciated. It can also serve premium branding and packaging when set at comfortable sizes with adequate spacing, and it performs well for short to medium passages when printed or rendered large enough to preserve its hairlines.
The overall tone is formal and polished, evoking classic book typography and fashion/editorial refinement. Its sharp contrast and neat finishing lend a sense of luxury and seriousness, with a poised, authoritative presence in headlines and pull quotes.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized classical serif voice: refined, high-contrast letterforms with disciplined proportions and crisp finishing for elegant display and editorial typography.
Distinctive details include an elegant, sweeping tail on the uppercase Q and neatly tapered diagonals on V/W/X that emphasize the sharp contrast. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with light connecting strokes and crisp finishing that visually aligns with the capitals.
