A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines, sturdy vertical stems, and sharp, tapered bracketed serifs. The design keeps an upright, classical posture while using generous proportions and open counters, giving letters room to breathe. Curves are smooth and controlled, with pointed terminals and delicate joins that emphasize a crisp, engraved rhythm. Numerals and capitals carry a stately presence, while the lowercase stays readable with a balanced x-height and clear inner shapes.
Well-suited to headlines, pull quotes, and magazine-style typography where high contrast can shine. It also fits book covers, cultural branding, and packaging that benefits from a classic, premium serif voice. For longer passages, it will perform best with thoughtful sizing and production conditions that preserve the hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and cultivated, projecting a sense of tradition and authority without feeling heavy. Its fine hairlines and formal detailing read as luxurious and editorial, suggesting high-end publishing, fashion, or cultural institutions.
The design appears intended to modernize a conventional text serif through elevated contrast and sharpened detailing, creating a refined display-capable voice while retaining familiar, literary proportions and structure.
In text, the strong thick–thin modulation creates a lively vertical cadence and a bright page color, but the finest strokes look most comfortable at adequate sizes and on clean output. The wide letterforms and open spacing support clarity, while the pointed finishing details add a distinctly sophisticated edge.
