A refined serif with strong thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline serifs. The letterforms are relatively narrow with a vertical, steady stance and smooth, rounded joins, producing a clean, polished rhythm in text. Terminals lean toward sharp and tapered details, with compact counters and a measured, formal spacing that keeps lines even and controlled.
Well-suited to magazine typography, cultural/editorial layouts, book covers, and refined headline work where contrast and elegance are desired. It can also support formal printed materials such as invitations and programs, especially when set with generous leading and careful tracking.
The overall tone feels sophisticated and composed, with a boutique editorial character. Its delicate detailing and vertical poise suggest luxury, classic print craft, and a slightly dramatic, high-style presence without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern classic serif voice: narrow, polished forms with emphatic contrast and precise finishing for an elevated, editorial look. It balances display appeal in capitals with a restrained text rhythm in the lowercase.
The numerals and capitals carry a stately, display-ready flavor while the lowercase remains disciplined and legible, giving the design flexibility across sizes. Fine stroke endings and small interior spaces make the face feel best when given adequate size and breathing room.
