A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and crisp, hairline-like terminals. Serifs are small and lightly bracketed, giving the strokes a polished, engraved feel without becoming rigid. Capitals are tall and carefully proportioned with open counters and a measured rhythm, while the lowercase maintains a traditional text structure with clear, calligraphic stress and modest, restrained details. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, mixing round forms with sharp, tapering joins for a consistent, refined texture.
Well suited to magazine and editorial typography, book covers, and other applications where a high-end, classical serif voice is desired. It performs especially well for headlines, pull quotes, and titling, and can work for short-form text when set large enough to preserve the thin strokes.
The overall tone is poised and classical, suggesting editorial sophistication and a quietly luxurious sensibility. Its lightness and contrast create an airy, premium impression that reads as formal without feeling ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography, prioritizing elegance, clarity, and a premium editorial presence. Its restrained serifs and controlled proportions aim for versatility across refined branding and print-forward layouts.
At larger sizes the fine hairlines and sharp transitions become a defining feature, producing a bright, shimmering page color and precise edge quality. The design leans toward display-friendly refinement, but keeps conventional letterforms and spacing that support continuous reading when set with appropriate size and leading.
