A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed wedge serifs. The design shows a slightly calligraphic influence in its tapered joins and pointed terminals, while maintaining an upright, composed stance. Capitals are broad and weighty with strong vertical stress; lowercase forms are compact and rhythmic, with a sturdy, two-storey “a” and a distinctly looped “g.” Numerals are bold and sculpted, with clear old-style flavor in their curvature and varying widths.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, deck text, pull quotes, and cover titles where its contrast and sharp detailing remain clear. It can also work for premium branding and packaging that benefits from a traditional serif voice with elevated drama, especially in larger sizes and generous spacing.
The overall tone is confident and editorial, balancing classical bookish cues with a more dramatic, fashion-forward contrast. It feels refined and slightly theatrical, suited to messages that want gravitas and polish rather than neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional serif reading silhouette with heightened contrast and refined detailing for contemporary editorial and brand applications. Its sturdy proportions and emphatic serifs aim to project authority while keeping a polished, cultivated finish.
Counters are relatively tight for the weight, giving text a dense, inky color at display sizes. Curved letters show crisp hairlines and sharp entry/exit strokes, and the italics are not shown; the roman forms carry most of the expressive character through contrast and serif shaping.
