A crisp serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and a compact, slightly condensed footprint. Strokes show a vertical stress, with fine hairlines and sturdier main stems, and mostly bracketed wedge-like serifs that keep the texture smooth rather than abrupt. Curves are tight and controlled, counters are relatively narrow, and the overall rhythm is even, producing a tidy, economical line. Numerals and capitals maintain the same disciplined contrast and slender proportions, giving the set a cohesive, traditional typographic color.
Well suited to book and magazine typography, especially where a classic serif texture and compact line fit are useful. It also performs nicely in editorial headlines and pull quotes where its contrast and sharp finishing can add sophistication and hierarchy.
The font conveys a classic, editorial tone—measured, cultivated, and slightly formal. Its sharp detailing and refined contrast suggest tradition and care, lending an authoritative voice without feeling ornamental.
The design appears intended as a conventional reading serif with an editorial sensibility, balancing compact proportions with refined contrast for a composed, authoritative presence in continuous text and display settings.
The narrow set and high-contrast modulation create a bright page with clear word shapes, while the pointed terminals and tapered joins add a subtle calligraphic edge. At larger sizes the hairlines become a defining feature, emphasizing elegance and precision.
