A crisp, high-contrast serif with finely tapered hairlines and stronger vertical stems, producing a bright, engraved rhythm on the page. Serifs are sharp and neatly bracketed, with pointed terminals and clean, controlled curves. Proportions feel on the wider side with open counters and a steady baseline, while capitals read statuesque and evenly spaced. The lowercase keeps a conventional structure with a two-storey “a,” a compact-shouldered “r,” and a single-storey “g,” balancing clarity with a distinctly polished edge.
This style performs best in headlines, titles, and editorial settings where contrast and sharp serifs can add sophistication. It also suits premium branding and packaging, and can work for short text passages in print when set at comfortable sizes and with sufficient leading.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, projecting refinement and authority rather than warmth or casualness. Its sharp details and dramatic stroke modulation evoke traditional book and magazine typography with a contemporary crispness.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, conventional reading voice with heightened contrast and crisp detailing, aiming for an upscale, print-forward presence in both display and editorial typography.
Round letters like O/C/Q show a smooth, even oval with pronounced thick–thin transitions, and the Q has a decisive, calligraphic tail. Numerals appear similarly high-contrast with elegant curves and light joins, suited to display sizing where the hairlines can remain clean.
