A high-contrast serif with crisp bracketed serifs and a strong vertical stress. Strokes move from hairline-thin connections to heavy stems, creating a pronounced black-and-white rhythm, especially in round letters like O/C and in the tight joins of a/e. The capitals feel stately and compact with sharp apexes and wedge-like finishing on several forms, while the lowercase shows compact bowls, narrow apertures, and lively terminals (including ball/teardrop details on characters like f, j, and y). Numerals and punctuation carry the same contrast and sharp finishing, giving figures a display-leaning presence.
Well suited to headlines, editorial typography, and branding where strong contrast and refined serif detailing can carry the visual voice. It can work for short text blocks such as pull quotes, subheads, and packaging copy when set with adequate size and spacing to preserve clarity in hairlines and tight counters.
The overall tone is classic and editorial, with a dramatic, high-fashion edge. Its sharp serifs and bright contrast suggest formality and authority, while the lively terminals add a slightly theatrical, attention-grabbing character.
Designed to deliver a refined, traditional serif voice with heightened contrast for impact. The letterforms prioritize a polished, print-inspired texture and a confident presence in display and editorial settings.
In text, the high contrast and tight internal spaces create a dense, elegant texture that reads best with comfortable tracking and generous line spacing. The italic is not shown; all samples appear upright.
