A high-contrast roman with narrow hairlines, firmer vertical stems, and crisp, bracketed serifs that taper to fine points. Curves are smooth and slightly condensed in feel, with round letters staying fairly vertical and controlled rather than wide. Terminals tend to be sheared or delicately flared, giving strokes a subtly calligraphic finish. Lowercase forms are traditional and readable, with open counters and a modest x-height, while numerals share the same sharp, engraved-like contrast and clear silhouettes.
Well suited to editorial layouts, book work, and magazine typography where a traditional, high-contrast voice is desired. It can also perform effectively for refined headlines, pull quotes, and identity systems that need a classic, authoritative tone, especially when set with comfortable size and spacing.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking book typography and editorial design. Its sharp hairlines and elegant modulation communicate formality and restraint, with a quiet, classic sophistication rather than a friendly or casual voice.
The design appears intended as a contemporary take on classic roman letterforms: strong vertical structure, precise serifs, and pronounced stroke modulation aimed at creating an elegant, authoritative texture for reading and display.
In longer text the rhythm is driven by strong verticals and fine connecting hairlines, producing a bright page color and an articulate texture. The capitals appear dignified and slightly narrow, and the numerals feel designed to sit comfortably in running text while still reading crisply at display sizes.
