A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered strokes and bracketed serifs that often flare subtly at the ends, creating a sculpted, calligraphic feel. Curves are smoothly drawn with tight apertures and pointed joins, while verticals read dark and steady against very thin hairlines. Proportions are moderately condensed with clear differentiation between thick and thin, and the overall rhythm is assertive and clean in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, and large-size editorial settings where its contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for refined branding, packaging, and book-cover typography that benefits from a classic yet contemporary serif presence.
The tone is polished and traditional with a fashionable edge—confident, slightly dramatic, and suited to elevated typography. Its sharp hairlines and flared detailing add a sense of craft and formality, giving text a composed, editorial voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized classical serif voice: traditional proportions and serif construction paired with sharper hairlines and subtle flaring to increase sophistication and visual drama in display and editorial use.
The uppercase shows strong monumentality and clear stress in rounded forms, while the lowercase maintains a classic, bookish structure with a notably crisp ‘a’ and a lively ‘g’. Numerals appear similarly high-contrast and display-leaning, with distinctive shapes that prioritize character over neutrality.
