A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline serifs that read as delicately bracketed rather than blocky. Proportions feel classical and somewhat narrow in the capitals, with smooth, rounded bowls (notably in C, O, Q) and firm vertical stems that set a steady rhythm in text. Curves show a clear vertical stress, while terminals and joins stay sharp and controlled, giving the face a clean, high-end finish. Numerals share the same contrasty, drawn elegance, with open counters and slender connecting strokes that keep the texture light and even.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazines, book interiors, and culture or fashion contexts where a polished serif texture is desired. It can also support premium branding, titles, and formal printed materials where high contrast and fine serifs help create a sophisticated hierarchy.
The overall tone is poised and cultured, projecting a traditional editorial sophistication. Its sharp contrast and fine detailing add a sense of luxury and formality, while the steady letterfit keeps it readable and composed in longer settings.
The design appears intended as a contemporary take on a classic text serif: to deliver an elegant, high-contrast color on the page with crisp finishing details, balancing display-level refinement with a disciplined rhythm for reading.
Uppercase forms present a stately presence with carefully tapered strokes and restrained flourishes; the Q’s tail and the angled strokes in letters like K and R add subtle personality without becoming decorative. Lowercase maintains a calm, bookish texture, with clear differentiation between similar forms and consistent serif treatment across the set.
