A delicate text serif with sharp, bracketed serifs and pronounced stroke modulation, moving from thin hairlines to sturdier verticals. The outlines are clean and crisp, with narrow joins and tapered terminals that keep counters open and forms airy. Proportions feel balanced and slightly condensed in the capitals, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with compact, well-contained bowls and modest ascenders/descenders. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with elegant curves and fine finishing strokes.
Well-suited to long-form reading in books and editorial layouts where a classic serif texture is desired. It also works effectively for magazine typography, pull quotes, and refined invitations or announcements where a composed, traditional tone is appropriate.
The overall tone is poised and traditional, suggesting literary seriousness and careful editorial craft. Its thin hairlines and refined serifs give it a cultured, slightly formal voice that reads as established rather than trendy.
The design appears aimed at delivering a conventional, book-oriented serif with elevated contrast and polished detailing, prioritizing a graceful text color and an authoritative, print-classic presence.
The sample text shows consistent spacing and a smooth baseline flow, with italic-like liveliness coming from tapered terminals rather than slant. The design favors elegance over robustness, so the finest strokes are a prominent part of its character at display and comfortable reading sizes.
