A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketed serifs and a steady vertical stress. Capitals are broad and evenly proportioned, with clean, chiseled joins and tapered strokes that create a polished, print-oriented rhythm. Lowercase shows open bowls and counters, a two-storey “a,” and a compact, sturdy “g,” with clear differentiation between similar forms. Numerals are lining with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp finishing details, keeping the overall texture lively but controlled in continuous text.
Well-suited to editorial typography such as books, magazines, and long-form reading where a classic serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for headlines, pull quotes, and institutional or luxury branding that benefits from a formal, established feel.
The tone is traditional and editorial, conveying seriousness and trust while still feeling elegant. Its sharp, high-contrast detailing suggests a cultured, bookish voice suited to established institutions and premium print contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a conventional, authoritative serif palette with pronounced contrast and crisp finishing, balancing readability with a refined, print-classical presence.
In the sample text, the spacing and word shapes read cleanly at display-to-text sizes, with strong verticals and decisive serifs giving lines a confident cadence. The design leans toward clarity over ornament, using contrast and precise terminals for character rather than flourish.
