A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, bracketed serifs. Strokes taper to fine hairlines in curves and crossbars, while verticals carry most of the weight, creating a distinctly calligraphic, Didone-leaning rhythm. The shapes are upright and neatly controlled, with compact apertures, sharp terminals, and a polished, print-like finish; capitals feel stately and well-proportioned, while the lowercase maintains a steady, bookish texture.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book typography, and magazine work where a classic serif texture is desired. It also performs convincingly for refined headlines, pull quotes, invitations, and formal brand materials that benefit from high-contrast elegance.
The overall tone is elegant and authoritative, with a traditional, editorial voice. Its strong contrast and sharp detailing convey refinement and formality, suggesting classic publishing and high-end branding rather than casual or utilitarian contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, premium reading-and-display serif with strong vertical emphasis and dramatic contrast. It prioritizes traditional proportions and crisp detailing to evoke established print typography and a confident, formal voice.
At text sizes the thin strokes and hairline serifs become a key part of the character, so spacing and reproduction quality will influence perceived crispness. Numerals follow the same contrast and serif treatment, visually aligning with the text for cohesive typographic color.
