A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered joins and subtly flared stroke terminals that give verticals a sculpted, calligraphic snap. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with pointed, wedge-like finishing on many strokes; curves are smooth and tightly controlled, and counters tend to be compact. Proportions feel traditional and text-oriented, with moderate ascenders/descenders and a slightly narrow, rhythmic set that alternates hairlines and thicker stems for clear vertical emphasis.
Well-suited to magazine and newspaper styling, book jackets, and title typography where contrast and refinement are assets. It also fits premium branding and packaging, and can work for invitations or formal announcements when set with generous spacing and high-quality reproduction.
The overall tone is polished and literary, blending classical book-seriffiness with a slightly fashion-forward sharpness. Its strong contrast and acute terminals add a sense of formality and drama without tipping into ornament.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary take on classical serif typography by combining traditional proportions with flared, sharpened terminals and pronounced contrast. The aim appears to be an authoritative yet stylish voice that stands out in headlines while retaining a credible text DNA.
Uppercase forms read stately and crisp, while the lowercase maintains a restrained, editorial texture; the italic-like movement is suggested through tapered strokes rather than actual slant. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with delicate hairlines and pronounced thick–thin transitions that favor display clarity over rugged neutrality.
