A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and fuller verticals that subtly widen into flared terminals. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with a distinctly tapered, calligraphic feel at stroke endings and joins. The lowercase shows compact bowls and moderately open apertures, while the uppercase is stately and evenly proportioned, producing a steady rhythm in text. Numerals follow the same sharp contrast and delicate finishing, reading cleanly at display sizes.
This design is well suited to magazine features, book covers, cultural institutions, and luxury or boutique identities where a refined serif voice is desired. It performs especially well in headlines, pull quotes, and larger text settings where the delicate hairlines and flared finishing can be appreciated.
The overall tone is polished and literary, balancing classical bookishness with a slightly contemporary sharpness. Its thin hairlines and pointed, tapered details lend an upscale, cultured character suited to refined branding and editorial typography.
The font appears intended to blend classical serif proportions with flared, calligraphic finishing to create an elegant display-and-editorial workhorse. Its consistent contrast and disciplined shapes suggest an emphasis on sophisticated texture and premium presentation rather than utilitarian neutrality.
Curves are smooth and controlled, with pronounced contrast at transitions and a consistent, slightly formal posture. Details like the diagonal leg of R, the energetic tail on Q, and the crisp diagonals in V/W/X reinforce a precise, premium texture, while the lowercase maintains good continuity for setting short paragraphs.
