This typeface shows a high-contrast serif construction with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered, flared stroke endings that often resolve into sharp, triangular terminals. Serifs are compact and wedge-like, with a slightly calligraphic rhythm in the joins and curves. Counters are generous and the forms feel carefully balanced, while the lowercase maintains a steady, readable texture with a moderate x-height and crisp punctuation-like diamond dots on i/j. Numerals follow the same contrast and taper logic, giving figures a formal, engraved appearance.
It performs especially well in magazine headlines, book covers, and section titles where contrast and sharp finishing details can be appreciated. For branding, it fits institutions and products aiming for a classic, premium voice. It can also support short passages or pull quotes, though its crisp contrast suggests using comfortable sizes and leading for extended reading.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, with a distinctly editorial seriousness. Its sharp terminals and bright, high-contrast color add a sense of sophistication and ceremony, suggesting prestige without becoming overly ornate. The feeling is confident and literary—appropriate for contexts that benefit from gravitas and clarity.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classical serif proportions with more tapered, flaring terminals and a sharper, contemporary finish. The goal seems to be a versatile editorial serif that delivers a refined presence in display typography while retaining enough regularity for text settings.
Several glyphs emphasize pointed apexes and tapered diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y), creating a slightly dramatic sparkle at display sizes. The italic is not shown; the presented style reads as a consistent, upright roman suitable for structured typography.
