A high-contrast serif with strong thick–thin modulation and sharply tapered hairlines. Serifs are fine and mostly bracketed, with pointed, slightly flared terminals that stay crisp at display sizes. The proportions are classical and fairly compact in the capitals, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with clear ascenders and descenders and a moderate x-height. Curves show a vertical stress and smooth, controlled joins; overall spacing feels even, with narrow counters in some letters contributing to a refined, print-like texture.
Well-suited to magazine headlines, book covers, and other editorial typography where contrast and detail are assets. It also fits premium branding and formal collateral such as invitations or certificates, especially at medium to large sizes where the hairlines and serifs can remain distinct.
The tone is polished and traditional, projecting an editorial and literary character. Its stark contrast and delicate finishing give it a premium, fashion-forward edge while still reading as a conventional book serif.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized classical serif voice: a conventional text foundation refined with heightened contrast and sharp finishing for elevated editorial and branding use.
Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and pronounced stroke modulation; the “2” and “3” show calligraphic shaping while “4” is more linear and open. The italic is not shown, and the roman sample indicates the design leans toward display and headline clarity rather than low-resolution robustness.
