A high-contrast serif with sculpted, slightly flared stroke endings and finely tapered terminals. The letterforms combine crisp hairlines with weighty verticals, using gentle bracketing and curved joins that keep transitions smooth rather than mechanical. Counters are open and well-shaped, with a balanced, traditional proportioning in both capitals and lowercase; the lowercase shows a moderate x-height with clear differentiation between rounds and stems. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven logic, with delicate thin strokes and strong main stems that read cleanly at display sizes.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine headlines, book and journal covers, pull quotes, and refined brand wordmarks. It performs best in larger sizes where the thin hairlines and tapered terminals can be appreciated, while still maintaining a composed, readable rhythm in short to medium text settings.
The overall tone is poised and cultured, evoking book typography and contemporary editorial design. Its sharp contrasts and refined detailing give it a formal, upscale presence, while the subtle flare adds a touch of warmth and craft.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with modern sharpness, leveraging strong contrast and subtly flared finishing to create a premium, literary feel. It aims for an elegant page color and clear hierarchy in display and editorial contexts.
Curves and diagonals feel controlled and slightly calligraphic, with terminals that often finish in tapered points rather than blunt cuts. Spacing appears even in the sample text, supporting smooth word shapes and a confident, high-end texture on the page.
