A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick-to-thin modulation and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. The capitals are stately and relatively wide with sharp terminals, while the lowercase shows compact, bookish proportions and a traditional two-storey a and g. Curves are taut and polished, with fine hairlines in joins and diagonals, producing a bright typographic color and a rhythmic, slightly dramatic texture in paragraphs. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with elegant hairline connections and strong vertical stress.
Well suited to book and long-form editorial typography where a classic, high-contrast serif voice is desired, and it can also serve as an elegant display face for headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding. It is especially effective in print-like layouts or high-resolution digital settings that maintain its delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is classic and authoritative, with a distinctly editorial sophistication. Its sharp hairlines and sculpted serifs give it a refined, slightly dramatic presence suited to traditional, high-end typography rather than casual or utilitarian settings.
The design appears intended as a conventional, literature-oriented serif with elevated contrast and carefully shaped serifs, aiming to deliver a traditional reading experience while adding a more dramatic, fashion/editorial edge in larger sizes.
At text sizes the thin strokes and hairline serifs become a defining feature, so the face reads most confidently when printing or rendering conditions can preserve fine detail. The design’s strong vertical stress and crisp terminals create a poised, formal cadence in continuous text.
