This serif typeface is built on crisp, high-contrast strokes with very thin hairlines and thicker verticals, producing a polished, engraved-like rhythm. Serifs are fine and mostly bracketed, with sharp, tapered terminals and a generally vertical stress evident in rounded forms. Capitals are tall and poised with generous internal space, while the lowercase maintains a measured, bookish texture; the two-story “a” and “g” are compact and precise, and the “e” has a delicate, slightly angled crossbar. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, mixing sturdy main strokes with hairline curves and graceful joins.
It suits large-size applications where contrast and detail can shine, such as magazine headlines, book covers, cultural posters, and high-end branding. In longer passages it can work best in well-printed or high-resolution contexts, where the thin hairlines remain intact and the refined texture is preserved.
The overall tone is elegant and composed, with a distinctly editorial and luxury feel. Its sharp hairlines and formal proportions give it a cultured, classical voice that reads as premium and slightly dramatic rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic text-and-display serif, emphasizing elegance through strong stroke contrast, careful serif shaping, and a composed, editorial cadence.
Curves are smooth and controlled, and spacing feels moderately open, helping preserve clarity despite the hairline details. The uppercase set carries a stately presence, while the lowercase adds refinement through tight apertures and consistent, fine finishing.
