This serif typeface shows strong thick–thin modulation with hairline horizontals and finely tapered entry/exit strokes. Serifs are sharp and delicate, with a mostly crisp, contemporary finish and only light bracketing at joins. Proportions feel fairly classic: capitals are tall with generous inner counters, while lowercase maintains a moderate x-height and clear ascender/descender length. Overall rhythm is driven by vertical stems and narrow hairlines, creating an elegant texture that stays orderly in text but becomes striking at larger sizes.
It suits magazine typography, book covers, and large-scale headlines where contrast and detail can shine. It can also work for premium branding and printed collateral such as invitations or packaging, especially when paired with ample whitespace and high-quality reproduction.
The tone is polished and high-end, with a distinctly editorial, fashion-forward elegance. Its pronounced contrast and fine detailing add drama and sophistication, suggesting luxury and authority rather than warmth or informality.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized take on classic text serifs—balancing traditional construction with heightened contrast and crisp finishing for a more editorial, display-ready presence.
Numerals appear lining and high-contrast, matching the letterforms’ refined hairlines and sharp terminals. Curved letters like O/Q/C show smooth, controlled modulation, and the lowercase a/e retain a traditional, bookish structure that supports continuous reading when set with comfortable spacing.
