This typeface is a refined serif with sharply tapered, hairline serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Stems are relatively slender, with crisp transitions into bracketed terminals and a generally vertical stress in round forms. Proportions feel classical and slightly narrow in the capitals, while the lowercase maintains a steady, readable rhythm; curves are smooth and controlled, and joins stay clean without heavy ball terminals. Figures appear lining with clear contrast and open counters, matching the text color of the letters.
It suits editorial typography, book work, and magazine layouts where a polished serif texture is desired. The style also performs well for headlines, pull quotes, and refined collateral such as invitations or branding wordmarks where sharp, high-contrast detailing can be appreciated.
The overall tone is poised and traditional, with a quiet sense of luxury and editorial polish. Its high-contrast detailing and sharp finishing give it an authoritative, cultivated voice that feels at home in formal and literary contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic text-serifs: maintaining traditional proportions and readability while emphasizing sharp, elegant finishing and a bright, high-contrast page color.
At larger sizes the fine serifs and delicate thins contribute to a bright, airy texture, while the sample paragraph shows an even flow and consistent spacing that supports continuous reading. Pointed diagonals and crisp apexes add a slightly fashion-forward edge without leaving the conventional serif idiom.
