A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp hairline terminals. The letterforms feel wide-set with generous internal space and clear vertical stress, pairing sturdy main stems with delicate cross-strokes and serifs. Serifs are crisp and pointed with minimal bracketing, and curves transition into thin joins that emphasize contrast. Overall spacing reads open and steady, giving large text a confident, structured rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and large editorial typography where its contrast and hairlines can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding and packaging, as well as book and magazine covers that benefit from a classic, authoritative serif voice.
The tone is formal and polished, with a distinctly editorial and luxury-leaning presence. Its high contrast and crisp detailing create a dramatic, upscale voice that feels suited to premium, carefully composed typography rather than casual UI text.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized classical serif look with strong contrast and crisp hairlines, aiming for sophistication and high-impact display performance. It prioritizes elegance and typographic drama while maintaining a readable, well-spaced rhythm in longer lines at larger sizes.
The uppercase shows a dignified, classical posture with broad proportions and strong verticals, while the lowercase maintains clarity through open counters and clean joins. Numerals carry the same contrast and finish, reading as display-friendly and traditional in character. In paragraph settings, the texture appears bold and authoritative due to the combination of width and contrast.
