A high-contrast serif with sharp hairlines and weighty vertical stems, giving letters a carved, print-like clarity. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with tapered terminals that stay crisp rather than blunt. Proportions feel expanded overall, with generous widths in many capitals and rounded forms, while stroke modulation remains consistent across the set. Lowercase shows a moderate x-height with compact apertures and smooth curves, and the numerals follow the same contrasty, old-style-inflected rhythm.
This style performs best in editorial settings such as magazine layouts, book titles, and display typography where its contrast and sculpted details can be appreciated. It can also suit formal materials like invitations or brand wordmarks, especially when set with comfortable leading and not too small.
The tone is polished and traditional, with an elevated, editorial character that reads as serious and cultured. Its dramatic contrast and roomy proportions add a sense of luxury and ceremony, lending text an authoritative, bookish presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic text-serif voice with heightened contrast and expanded proportions, balancing traditional letterforms with a more theatrical, high-fashion presence for prominent typography.
In continuous text the dark verticals create a pronounced vertical cadence, while thin horizontals and serifs keep the texture airy. The overall impression is crisp and refined, better suited to controlled typesetting than rough or utilitarian contexts.
