This serif face combines delicate hairlines with fuller vertical stems, producing a crisp, high-contrast rhythm. Serifs are fine and largely bracketed, with tapered terminals that keep edges sharp rather than blunt. Uppercase proportions feel tall and composed, while the lowercase maintains a traditional book-text structure with clear ascenders/descenders and a gently modulated, pen-influenced stroke. Overall spacing reads controlled and even, supporting continuous text without looking mechanical.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazines, essays, and book interiors where a classic serif texture is desired. It also performs nicely in display settings—chapter openers, pull quotes, and refined branding—especially when printed or used at comfortable sizes where its fine details can remain clear.
The tone is cultivated and formal, with a distinctly editorial polish. Its thin details and clean modulation suggest luxury and restraint rather than warmth or ruggedness, lending a poised, literary character to headlines and text alike.
The design appears intended to deliver a traditional, publication-ready serif with elevated contrast and delicate finishing, balancing classical letterform conventions with a more fashion-forward refinement. It aims for clarity and prestige rather than robustness, emphasizing graceful detail and a composed typographic color.
Round forms show pronounced contrast and a smooth transition into hairline sections, and the numerals follow the same refined modulation for a consistent voice in mixed alphanumeric settings. The overall silhouette stays conventional and readable, while the fine terminals add a touch of sophistication.
