A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp hairline details. Serifs are small and bracketed, with a slightly calligraphic sweep that shows in the curved joins and tapered terminals. Proportions feel moderately condensed with a strong vertical stance, while counters remain open and the spacing is even, producing a tidy text rhythm. Numerals and capitals carry a dignified, bookish presence, pairing sharp triangular accents with smooth, rounded bowls.
Well suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where contrast and fine detailing can shine. It also works effectively for magazine features, headlines, and refined branding applications that want a classic serif voice with a clean, modern finish.
The overall tone is elegant and composed, leaning toward traditional print sophistication rather than display flamboyance. It reads as cultured and formal, with a quiet sharpness that suggests careful typesetting and editorial restraint.
The design appears aimed at a conventional text serif with elevated contrast and carefully controlled detailing, balancing readability with a distinctly refined, print-oriented character.
Curves are drawn with a clear contrast-driven logic, giving round letters a polished sheen and letting thin strokes disappear delicately at smaller sizes. The lowercase shows a lively, slightly calligraphic construction that adds warmth without losing precision.
