A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and weighty verticals, showing a distinctly wide, airy footprint and a steady upright stance. Serifs are bracketed and sharp, with tapered joins that keep strokes feeling carved rather than blunt. Curves are smooth and slightly squarish in their stress, and several letters introduce small ball or teardrop terminals (notably in the lowercase and figures), adding a refined, traditional finish. The rhythm is open and expansive, with generous internal counters and strong vertical emphasis that reads cleanly at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, editorial layouts, and large-format typography where the contrast and wide proportions can breathe. It can work for refined branding and book-cover titling, and for short passages or captions when set with ample size and leading to protect the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is polished and editorial, with a classic, bookish authority and a touch of theatrical contrast. It feels composed and traditional rather than trendy, projecting confidence and formality while still showing a bit of personality through its terminal details.
The design appears intended as a conventional, high-contrast serif for elevated editorial and display use, combining familiar classical structures with slightly expressive terminals to keep the texture from feeling purely utilitarian.
Uppercase forms appear stately and stable, while the lowercase adds liveliness via curled/ball-ended details on letters like a, g, j, and y. Numerals follow the same contrast logic and include curved terminals that harmonize with the lowercase, helping the set feel cohesive in headlines and pull quotes.
