This serif typeface features finely tapered hairlines paired with stronger vertical stems, producing a crisp, high-contrast rhythm. Serifs are small and sharply defined with a subtle bracketed feel, and terminals often finish in pointed or gently flared strokes rather than blunt cuts. Proportions are compact with relatively tight set widths, while round letters maintain clean, even curves; the overall color stays light and open on the page. Numerals and capitals share the same restrained, formal construction, with narrow figures and careful stroke modulation that reads cleanly at display and larger text sizes.
It suits editorial contexts such as books, magazines, and long-form reading where a refined serif voice is desired, especially at comfortable text sizes. The light, precise detailing also works well for invitations, luxury-facing branding, and headline or pull-quote typography where elegance and restraint are priorities.
The tone is poised and literary, with a quiet formality that suggests editorial polish and classical taste. Its delicate detailing and crisp contrast convey refinement and a sense of tradition without appearing ornate.
The design appears intended as a conventional text serif with a refined, high-contrast drawing that emphasizes elegance and clarity. Its narrow proportions and delicate serifs aim to deliver a sophisticated page texture while keeping forms disciplined and readable.
The sample text shows consistent spacing and a controlled baseline rhythm, with clear differentiation between similar shapes (notably in the numerals and round capitals). The italic is not shown; the impression is defined by the roman’s precise, hairline-driven detailing and slender overall stance.
