A high-contrast serif with crisp, wedge-like serifs and subtly bracketed joins that sharpen into pointed terminals. The strokes move from hairline-thin to firm verticals, giving letters a lively, polished rhythm. Uppercase forms are stately and well-proportioned with clean, open counters, while lowercase shows a traditional book face structure with a two-storey a and g, compact joins, and a clear, vertical stress. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with fine details and distinctive angled terminals that keep the set cohesive.
This style suits long-form reading such as books and essays, as well as editorial design where a traditional serif voice is desired. It also performs well for magazine headlines, pull quotes, and formal materials like invitations or programs where its contrast and sharp finishing can read as refined.
The overall tone feels classical and editorial—measured, cultured, and slightly ceremonial. Its sharp detailing and strong contrast suggest seriousness and tradition, projecting confidence without feeling ornate.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with elevated contrast and crisp finishing, balancing readability with a distinctly classical, print-oriented character. It prioritizes a disciplined, literary tone while offering enough sharpness and rhythm to stand out in editorial typography.
At text sizes the thin hairlines and pointed serifs create a bright texture that benefits from comfortable spacing and good reproduction. In larger settings, the crisp terminals and contrast become a defining visual feature that can add elegance to headings and display copy.
