This serif features delicate hairlines paired with fuller main strokes, creating a crisp high-contrast rhythm. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with a classical, calligraphic influence in the curvature and modulation. The proportions feel open and slightly expanded, with generous counters and a light overall color on the page. Lowercase forms are smooth and rounded with gently tapered terminals, while capitals maintain a stately, formal structure suited to display sizing.
Well-suited to magazine typography, book and chapter titles, pull quotes, and brand identities that want a premium, classical voice. It can also work for short text passages in print or high-resolution settings where its fine details and contrast can remain clear.
The overall tone is polished and cultured, leaning toward luxury and editorial sophistication. Its lightness and sharp contrast give it an airy, premium feel that reads as formal without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized classic text-serif voice with heightened refinement: light color, precise contrast, and graceful bracketed serifs that elevate headings and editorial composition.
In running text the thin horizontals and hairline serifs stay prominent, emphasizing vertical stress and a refined texture. Numerals share the same contrast and elegance, with a graceful, classic lining look that complements the capitals.
