A sharp, high-contrast text face with clean, unbracketed serifs and a pronounced vertical stress. Strokes move between hairline-thin connections and stronger main stems, producing bright counters and a brisk rhythm. Curves are smooth and restrained, terminals are mostly flat or lightly tapered, and joins are tight and controlled. Uppercase forms feel stately and open, while the lowercase stays compact and legible with simple, modern-looking constructions and minimal ornament.
Well-suited to magazine typography, cultural/editorial layouts, and brand identities that need a refined, high-contrast voice. It performs best for display sizes and short-to-medium text where the sharp contrast and open counters can contribute elegance without looking fussy.
The overall tone is polished and editorial, balancing classic bookish cues with a contemporary, crisp finish. It reads as composed and confident rather than decorative, with an elevated, fashion-and-culture sensibility.
Likely designed to deliver an editorial, high-contrast look with modern restraint—pairing crisp detailing and open shapes for clear, stylish typography in contemporary publishing and branding contexts.
The numerals appear streamlined and well-aligned with the text color, matching the face’s contrast and tidy detailing. Round letters keep generous interior space, and the punctuation and dots present as small, neat accents that reinforce the font’s refined texture.
