A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline terminals. The letterforms are built on classical proportions with a steady vertical axis, narrow joins, and sharp bracketed serifs that taper cleanly into the stems. Curves are smooth and controlled, with finely cut apertures and a measured, even rhythm across text; capitals feel stately while lowercase maintains a restrained, bookish color. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and slender finishing strokes.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, essays, and long-form reading where a classic serif voice is desired. It also fits refined applications like invitations, cultural programs, and luxury-oriented branding or packaging, especially when used at sizes that let the hairline detailing remain intact.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, conveying a sense of cultured restraint and quiet luxury. Its crisp contrast and fine detailing suggest formality and sophistication, leaning toward literary and editorial settings rather than casual or utilitarian ones.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast book serif: elegant, economical in texture, and capable of both composed body copy and poised headlines. Its careful modulation and sharp finishing strokes prioritize sophistication and typographic polish.
In continuous text the thin hairlines and tight internal details create a bright, airy texture, while the heavier verticals keep the line from feeling anemic. The design reads cleanly at moderate sizes, but the most delicate strokes are visually prominent and become a key part of the personality in display and titling contexts.
