This typeface is a high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines, fuller verticals, and bracketed, slightly flared terminals that give the strokes a sculpted, chiseled finish. Capitals are elegant and moderately wide with crisp wedge-like serifs and clear modulation, while the lowercase shows a traditional, text-oriented build with a two-storey “a” and “g,” compact bowls, and narrow joins that keep counters clean. Curves are smooth and controlled, with subtle calligraphic influence visible in the stress and in the way strokes taper into terminals. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with distinctive angled entries and delicate finishing strokes that remain legible at display sizes.
Well-suited to editorial design such as magazine headlines, book covers, and section titles where its contrast and refined terminals can be appreciated. It can also serve in premium branding and packaging when a classic, cultured voice is needed, and in short-form text settings when sizes and production quality support its fine hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and literary, evoking classic book typography and editorial sophistication. Its crisp contrast and sculpted terminals add a sense of formality and prestige without feeling overly ornamental.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif authority with a slightly sculptural, flared finishing that adds personality and a contemporary edge. It aims for a versatile editorial voice: classical proportions and readability cues paired with crisp, display-friendly detailing.
In text, the rhythm is calm and even, with strong vertical emphasis and consistent serif treatment that helps guide the eye along lines. The sharper joins and thin hairlines suggest it will look best where rendering is clean and sizes are not too small, while the distinctive terminals add character to headings and pull quotes.
