A high-contrast serif with strong vertical stems and hairline-thin connecting strokes that create a crisp, sculpted rhythm. Serifs are sharp and largely bracketed, with pointed terminals that give many joins a chiseled feel. Curves show a clear vertical stress and tight apertures, while counters stay relatively compact in letters like a, e, and s. The overall silhouette is sturdy and headline-oriented, with assertive capitals and tidy, conventional lowercase proportions.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and large-size editorial settings where the contrast and sharp detailing can read cleanly. It also fits premium branding, packaging, and event or cultural posters that benefit from a classic serif voice with extra visual drama. For extended small-size text, the very fine hairlines suggest using comfortable sizes and high-quality reproduction.
The tone is polished and editorial, combining classic bookish cues with a more theatrical, fashion-forward contrast. Its sharp serifs and pronounced thick–thin transitions project sophistication and authority, with a slightly dramatic edge that feels premium and deliberate.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif foundation with elevated contrast and sharper detailing for contemporary editorial and brand work. It aims for a balance of tradition and impact: familiar proportions and reading cues, paired with refined, high-fashion crispness in terminals and stroke modulation.
Numerals are stately and display-like, with the 2 and 3 showing pronounced ball/teardrop terminals and the 4 featuring a distinctive open, calligraphic structure. The uppercase Q has a long, sweeping tail, and diagonal forms (V, W, X) read crisply thanks to the strong contrast and precise terminals.
