A compact serif with tall proportions and tightly drawn letterforms. Strokes show clear modulation, with pronounced thick–thin contrast that stays controlled, and terminals that taper into pointed, flared serif-like endings rather than blunt slabs. Curves are clean and slightly tense, with narrow bowls and apertures; the rhythm feels vertical and steady. The lowercase has a traditional structure with a modest x-height and long, elegant ascenders, while figures are similarly narrow and upright, matching the text color closely.
This font is well suited to headlines and subheads where a tall, compact serif can deliver authority without taking much horizontal space. It also works well for book covers and editorial display settings, and for posters that benefit from a dense, high-contrast typographic presence.
The overall tone is serious and refined, leaning toward bookish and editorial sophistication. Its narrow stance and sharp, tapered details create a crisp, slightly dramatic voice that feels traditional rather than playful.
The design appears intended to provide a classic serif voice with a more sculpted, tapered finish, balancing tradition with a sharper, more stylized silhouette. Its narrow build suggests a goal of fitting strong, formal typography into tight columns or compact layouts while retaining an elegant, literary character.
The design maintains a consistent, chiseled finish across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, with pointed joins and neatly handled curves. In text, the compact spacing and vertical emphasis produce a dense, authoritative texture that suits composed, formal settings.
