A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and fuller vertical stems, showing a distinctly calligraphic modulation. Serifs are bracketed and finely tapered, with occasional flaring at terminals and a generally open, generously spaced rhythm. Proportions lean wide in capitals, while lowercase forms maintain a steady, readable structure with moderate ascenders/descenders and clear counters. Curves are smooth and controlled, and diagonal strokes (as in V/W/X/Y) stay clean and sharply finished, reinforcing a polished, text-forward character.
It fits well in editorial typography—magazines, essays, and book interiors—where high-contrast serifs can provide an upscale reading experience at appropriate sizes. The strong, sculpted capitals and lively punctuation also make it effective for display applications such as headlines, pull quotes, and formal printed pieces like programs or invitations.
The overall tone is refined and literary, with a confident, traditional voice suited to cultured and formal contexts. Its contrast and sharp finishing add a crisp elegance that feels editorial rather than purely utilitarian, lending a sense of sophistication and quiet authority.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary, print-classic text serif: traditional structure with elegant contrast and carefully finished details that read as premium and composed. It seems intended to balance readability with a distinctive, polished personality for editorial and book-oriented settings.
Distinctive details include a more expressive Q with a long, sweeping tail and numerals that follow the same contrast logic, helping the set feel cohesive in mixed text. The lowercase shows a slightly lively, humanist inflection in terminals and joins, which keeps long passages from feeling stiff despite the formal construction.
