A high-contrast roman with crisp hairlines and fuller main strokes, showing a controlled, print-like rhythm. The forms are upright with moderate proportions and a steady baseline, combining sharp wedge-like terminals with small bracketed serifs that soften joins. Capitals feel stately and slightly condensed in their curves, while the lowercase maintains clear counters and a measured, readable texture; ascenders are prominent and bowls are smoothly modeled. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with elegant curves and thin entry/exit strokes that read cleanly at display sizes.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine headlines, book titles, and pull quotes where contrast and refinement are desirable. It can also serve upscale branding and packaging, and works effectively in posters or other display settings where its hairlines and sculpted curves can remain clear.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, with an editorial sophistication that suggests established print culture. Its sharp contrast and poised proportions lend a sense of luxury and seriousness without becoming overly ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic, high-contrast roman voice—prioritizing elegance, sharp typographic color, and a confident headline presence while retaining a familiar, readable structure.
Distinctive details include a calligraphic slant to some joins and terminals, a lively 'g' with a pronounced ear, and strong vertical stress in rounded letters. Diagonals (like in V/W/X) are crisp and angular, while round letters keep a smooth, controlled modulation, creating a balanced mix of sharpness and refinement.
