This typeface is a high-contrast serif with a compact, tall-leaning silhouette and finely tapered hairlines set against sturdy verticals. Serifs read as bracketed and slightly flared, with pointed, wedge-like endings that give stems a sculpted finish rather than blunt cuts. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are moderately open, and the overall rhythm is crisp with clear thick–thin modulation. Numerals and capitals maintain the same refined contrast, producing a clean, polished texture in text.
It performs best in editorial headlines, magazine typography, and book-cover titling where its contrast and sharp details can be appreciated. It can also support short-form text such as decks, pull quotes, and formal stationery, especially when generous sizing and spacing preserve the delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is refined and traditional, with a poised, bookish elegance. Its sharp terminals and bright contrast lend a slightly dramatic, high-end feel that suits formal communication and cultured editorial settings.
The design appears intended to modernize a classic serif voice through pronounced contrast and subtly flared, sharpened terminals, yielding a confident display character that still reads as traditionally rooted.
In text, the narrow set and strong contrast create a vertical, orderly color that stays crisp at display sizes. The pointed, flared serif treatment contributes a distinctive, slightly stylized finish without pushing into overtly decorative territory.
