This serif presents a refined, high-contrast build with slender hairlines and sharp, clean terminals. Serifs are narrow and crisp, often lightly bracketed, giving strokes a controlled transition from thick to thin. Uppercase forms feel stately and proportioned, with open counters and smooth curves, while the lowercase shows a traditional book-face rhythm with moderate ascenders/descenders and a two-storey “g”. Overall spacing appears measured and even, producing a calm, consistent texture in text.
It is well-suited to editorial typography such as magazine features, book interiors, and long-form reading where a classic serif voice is desired. It also works effectively for elegant display settings—headlines, pull quotes, and invitations—when a refined, traditional impression is needed.
The tone is polished and formal, with a distinctly literary and editorial character. Its crisp contrast and delicate finishing details lend a sense of sophistication suited to classic, upscale communication rather than utilitarian or rugged contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, contemporary-leaning serif with pronounced contrast and crisp detailing, balancing dignified uppercase shapes with readable, traditionally structured lowercase forms for both text and display use.
Figures are lining and align neatly, with strong vertical stress and fine interior joins that reinforce the refined look. The italic is not shown; all samples depict a straight roman style.
