A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered hairlines and weighty vertical stems. Serifs are small and sharply bracketed, giving a clean, chiseled finish at terminals without feeling slab-like. The overall construction is traditional and upright, with moderate proportions and a steady baseline rhythm; counters are relatively open for a Didone-leaning design, and curves are smoothly modeled. In text, the face shows a pronounced thick–thin cadence and clear stroke modulation, producing strong vertical emphasis and a polished page color.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other editorial applications where contrast and refinement are assets. It also works well for book covers, cultural programs, and formal branding materials that benefit from a classic serif voice; for extended small-size text, it will reward generous sizing and comfortable spacing.
The font reads as classic and editorial, with an elegant, formal tone suited to print-like typography. Its sharp contrast and refined detailing suggest a cultured, literary sensibility rather than a casual or utilitarian voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a conventional high-contrast text serif—combining traditional proportions and bracketed serifs with a clean, modern sharpness that holds up in both display settings and well-sized editorial text.
Capitals feel stately and slightly narrow in impression due to the dominant verticals and compact serifs, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation in shapes such as a single-storey “g” and a two-storey “a.” Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with slender joining strokes and bold main stems that make them feel display-friendly at larger sizes.
