A high-contrast serif with sharp, hairline unbracketed-to-lightly bracketed serifs and a crisp, chiseled feel. Stems are markedly thicker than connecting hairlines, creating pronounced thick–thin modulation across rounds and diagonals. The drawing favors generous proportions and open interior spaces, with smooth, polished curves and tapered terminals that read cleanly at display sizes. Letterforms show a controlled, classical structure with a slightly calligraphic stress, while maintaining a composed, contemporary rhythm in text settings.
Best suited to headlines, large subheads, and editorial typography where its contrast and hairlines can be appreciated. It can also work for premium branding, packaging, and invitation-style materials, especially when paired with ample whitespace and careful typesetting.
The overall tone is luxurious and editorial, balancing classic bookish authority with a fashion-forward sheen. Its dramatic contrast and fine details convey sophistication and precision, making the texture feel airy yet assertive.
Designed to deliver a refined, classical serif voice with heightened contrast for modern editorial and brand communication. The intention appears to be a luxurious display texture that still feels rooted in conventional serif proportions for versatile use in sophisticated layouts.
Capitals present strong vertical emphasis and crisp apexes, while the lowercase includes distinctive, sculpted shapes (notably in a, g, and y) that add personality without breaking conventional readability. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with elegant curves and fine joins that reinforce a premium, print-oriented look.
