A high-contrast serif with crisp, finely tapered hairlines and sturdier main strokes, creating a distinctly calligraphic rhythm. Serifs are sharp and slightly flared, with subtle bracketing that helps transitions feel smooth rather than abrupt. Curves are clean and controlled, counters are generous, and terminals often finish in a pointed or delicately thinned edge. Overall proportions feel balanced with a moderately sized x-height, giving lowercase a clear, literary texture while capitals remain dignified and stable.
Well-suited for editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and long-form reading where a classic serif voice is desired. It also performs nicely in headlines, pull quotes, and refined brand systems that need an elegant, authoritative tone. The crisp contrast and sharp finishing details make it especially effective for larger sizes in print and high-resolution digital layouts.
The tone is polished and literary, with a calm authority that reads as editorial and cultured. Its sharp detailing and bright contrast lend a sense of luxury and formality without becoming overly ornate.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary take on a classic, high-contrast serif—combining traditional proportions with flared, sharpened stroke endings for added sophistication and visual sparkle. The aim appears to be a versatile editorial face that can move between text and display while maintaining a refined, cultivated character.
The numerals and capitals show strong vertical emphasis and a consistent contrast pattern, while the lowercase maintains an even text color at paragraph sizes. The design’s flared stroke endings and pointed terminals add sparkle in display settings, but the underlying structure stays restrained and traditional.
