A high-contrast serif with strongly bracketed, hairline serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The design shows sharp wedge-like joins and crisp, tapered terminals that give strokes a slightly calligraphic, engraved feel. Proportions run generously wide in many capitals with ample internal space, while the overall rhythm remains stable and upright. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same contrast and crisp finishing, producing a bold black-and-white texture at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, magazine spreads, book covers, and poster typography where its contrast and crisp serifs can be appreciated. It can also work for short blocks of text in refined editorial contexts, particularly when set with comfortable leading to keep the high-contrast forms from feeling crowded.
The tone is refined and theatrical, mixing classical bookishness with a fashion/editorial edge. Its sharp contrast and pointed detailing read as confident and slightly dramatic rather than casual, making it feel formal and intentional on the page.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with heightened contrast and sharp finishing for strong visual impact. Its wide, confident capitals and delicate hairline details suggest a display-forward serif meant to add polish and authority in editorial and promotional settings.
In the text sample, the strong contrast creates a lively sparkle, and the sharp serifs and tapered curves become more prominent as size increases. The wide stance of several capitals contributes to an expansive, headline-friendly presence, while the lowercase keeps a traditional serif silhouette.
