This typeface features crisp, sculpted letterforms with pronounced thick–thin modulation and clean, sharp terminals. Strokes often end in small wedge-like flares, giving a subtly calligraphic, engraved feel even though the overall construction remains restrained and highly legible. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are open, and spacing feels even, with a steady rhythm across lines of text. The lowercase shows traditional text proportions with a two-storey “a,” compact “e,” and sturdy vertical stems, while figures are clear and bookish, with distinct shapes and strong contrast.
It performs well for editorial systems, book or long-form reading, and magazine typography where a refined texture is desirable. The clear capitals and high-contrast detailing also make it effective for headlines, pull quotes, and sophisticated brand wordmarks.
The overall tone is polished and literary, projecting credibility and formality without feeling ornamental. It reads as confident and slightly traditional, suited to contexts that want a sense of craft and seriousness.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, clean reading experience while borrowing subtle cues from calligraphic and engraved traditions. Its controlled contrast and sharpened terminals aim to add elegance and authority without sacrificing everyday readability.
In the sample text, the contrast and flared terminals become more apparent at larger sizes, where the sharp joins and tapered endings add sparkle. At text sizes, the consistent stem structure and open forms help maintain clarity, while the modulation adds a refined texture to paragraphs.
