A high-contrast text face with sharply tapered terminals and a pronounced vertical stress. Curved letters show thin hairlines that meet thicker stems with clean, precise joins, creating a crisp rhythm across both capitals and lowercase. The lowercase has a moderate x-height and relatively narrow internal apertures, while ascenders and descenders are clearly defined, giving lines of text a composed, bookish texture. Figures follow the same contrast model, with elegant curves and fine entry strokes that keep the numerals lively without becoming ornamental.
Well suited to magazine layouts, book typography, and other editorial settings where a refined, high-contrast texture is desired. It can also serve effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and premium branding applications that benefit from a classic, cultivated voice.
The overall tone is polished and authoritative, with a distinctly editorial feel suited to serious, cultured messaging. Its contrast and sharp terminals lend a sense of refinement and tradition, evoking classic publishing and formal communication rather than casual or playful voice.
The design appears intended to provide an elegant, publication-oriented reading experience with strong contrast and carefully shaped terminals that add sophistication while preserving a disciplined, upright structure for continuous text.
In the text sample, the letterspacing reads balanced and the high contrast remains stable at display sizes, producing a strong black–white interplay. Distinctive details—such as a pointed, calligraphic feel in diagonals and the lively tails in letters like Q and y—add character while maintaining an orderly, readable structure.
