A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a clear vertical stress. Strokes taper to fine hairlines, with delicate, crisp serifs and mostly unbracketed joins that keep the overall texture sharp. Proportions feel expansive and generously spaced, with broad capitals and roomy lowercase forms that maintain open counters and an even rhythm across lines. Numerals follow the same calligraphic contrast, reading clean and composed alongside text.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and section openers, as well as book covers and cultural or fashion-oriented branding. It can also support short passages of text when sizes and output allow the fine hairlines to hold up, especially in high-quality print or high-resolution digital settings.
The tone is polished and literary, projecting a sense of tradition and restraint. Its thin details and airy spacing give it a poised, high-end feel suited to sophisticated settings rather than utilitarian work.
Likely intended as a modern, high-contrast serif that references classical book and editorial typography while emphasizing finesse and spacious proportions. The goal appears to be a luxurious, composed reading texture with sharp details and a distinctly formal presence.
The design leans on smooth, sweeping curves in round letters while keeping horizontals and serifs fine, creating a bright page color at text sizes. The overall impression is consistent and carefully drawn, with emphasis on crispness and elegance over robustness.
