A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline cross-strokes that create a crisp, glossy texture. Serifs are sharp and mostly bracketed, with tapered arms and pointed terminals that give capitals a carved, monumental feel. The lowercase shows compact, sturdy bowls and stems with delicate entry/exit strokes; the ‘a’ is double-storey and the ‘g’ is double-storey with a distinct ear. Numerals follow the same contrast model, combining sturdy main strokes with fine hairlines and small, refined terminals for a distinctly bookish rhythm.
Well-suited to editorial typography, book and magazine display, and high-end brand applications where contrast and refinement are desirable. It performs especially well in headlines, pull quotes, and cover titling, and can also support short-form text in well-printed contexts.
The overall tone is refined and authoritative, leaning toward classic publishing and upscale branding. Its dramatic contrast and sharp detailing read as elegant and slightly theatrical, projecting confidence and formality rather than casual warmth.
The font appears designed to deliver a contemporary, polished take on classical text serifs, emphasizing dramatic contrast and sharp, elegant finishing. Its letterforms aim for a premium editorial presence with strong uppercase impact and refined lowercase texture.
The design relies on very fine hairlines and tight stroke transitions, which heighten sophistication but also make small-size rendering more sensitive to reproduction conditions. In larger settings, the crisp serifs and sculpted curves create strong letterform identity and striking word shapes.
