A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline-like connecting strokes, creating a crisp, high-definition texture. Serifs are small and neatly bracketed, with sharp terminals and a controlled, upright stance. Proportions feel classic and slightly narrow in the capitals, while the lowercase maintains a steady, bookish rhythm; counters are open and the overall color stays light and airy at text sizes. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with delicate joins and clear, traditional forms.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine display, headlines, and pull quotes, as well as book covers and titling where a polished, classic voice is desired. It can also support premium brand systems and formal printed materials like invitations when set with ample spacing to protect the fine strokes.
The font conveys sophistication and restraint, with a poised, fashion/editorial tone. Its sharp contrast and fine details read as premium and ceremonial, suggesting authority without heaviness.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast book/display serif: elegant, crisp on the page, and capable of elevating short texts and titles with a distinctly refined presence.
Curved letters show smooth, continuous transitions into hairlines, and diagonals (V, W, X, Y) land in pointed, precise vertices. The italic is not shown; the roman presentation relies on contrast and terminal finesse rather than overt quirks for personality.
