This serif presents sculpted letterforms with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals. Serifs are finely bracketed and often flare subtly from stems, producing a chiseled, calligraphic edge rather than blunt slabs. Capitals are stately and compact in color, while the lowercase maintains a moderate x-height with clear ascenders and descenders, giving text a refined vertical rhythm. Curves are smooth and controlled, with teardrop-like joins and sharp apexes that keep the overall texture lively and high-definition.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, and book-cover titling where contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It also fits refined branding and packaging systems that need a classic serif voice with extra edge, and works effectively for pull quotes and section openers.
The tone is polished and literary, pairing classic bookish manners with a slightly dramatic, fashion-forward contrast. It feels formal without becoming ornate, projecting confidence and sophistication suited to curated, premium contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif, emphasizing flared finishing, crisp terminals, and a composed rhythm for authoritative display typography and elevated editorial work.
In the sample text, the strong contrast and tapered details create a vivid page color at display and subhead sizes, while the controlled proportions help preserve clarity in longer lines. Numerals share the same sharp, tapered finishing and high-contrast construction, supporting consistent typographic hierarchy.
