A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline finishing strokes. Serifs are sharp and finely bracketed, with tapered terminals that give the outlines a crisp, etched feel. Proportions skew tall with generous ascenders and a relatively modest x-height, producing an airy rhythm and ample white space inside and between letters. The lowercase shows a two-storey a and g, a narrow, high-contrast t, and a long-tailed y; caps are stately and open, with round letters like C/O showing smooth, even curves despite the extreme contrast. Numerals follow the same refined, high-contrast logic, reading as elegant display figures rather than utilitarian text forms.
Well suited to editorial design where elegance and contrast are desirable, including magazine headlines, pull quotes, and refined long-form settings at comfortable sizes. It also fits book covers, cultural branding, and premium packaging where a classical serif voice is needed.
The overall tone is poised and cultivated, evoking classic book typography and editorial sophistication. The hairline details and crisp serifs feel premium and formal, lending a quiet sense of luxury without ornamental excess.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern-classical reading of a traditional serif: high contrast, sharply finished serifs, and tall proportions that emphasize sophistication and a light, fashionable presence in display and editorial contexts.
At larger sizes the fine strokes and pointed joins read clean and precise, while at smaller sizes the hairlines and narrow connections may visually soften due to their delicacy. The sample text shows a calm, measured texture with clear word shapes, driven by the tall proportions and restrained, consistent serif treatment.
