A high-contrast serif with slender hairlines and fuller verticals, shaped with gently flared, bracketed endings that read as sharp but not abrupt. The construction feels calligraphic: joins and terminals taper with a smooth, controlled modulation, and curves are cleanly drawn with generous interior counters. Proportions run on the wider side with open spacing, producing an airy texture in text. Uppercase forms are stately and restrained, while the lowercase shows more movement in letters like a, e, g, and y through curved bowls and tapered terminals.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book covers, and interior text where a bright, refined texture and clear contrast are beneficial. It also fits brand identities and packaging that want a premium, classic voice, particularly in headlines, pull quotes, and larger text where the delicate hairlines can shine.
The overall tone is elegant and literary, pairing a classical bookish feel with a slightly contemporary crispness. Its lightness and contrast suggest sophistication and calm authority rather than utility or ruggedness, lending a premium, editorial voice to headlines and running text alike.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined serif voice with visible stroke modulation and tasteful flaring at terminals, balancing classical proportions with a clean, contemporary finish. It aims to create an elegant reading rhythm and a distinctive, high-end presence in display and editorial settings.
Round forms (O/C/G/Q) maintain smooth, near-elliptical geometry, and diagonals (V/W/X/Y) stay sharp with delicate hairline intersections. Numerals appear refined and display-leaning, with strong contrast and graceful curves, suited to settings where a polished typographic color is desired.
