A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered terminals that often flare subtly at stroke ends. Serifs are sharp and bracketed, giving stems a sculpted, chiseled feel while maintaining clean, upright posture. Capitals are stately and compact with confident curves (notably in C, G, and S), while lowercase forms keep a traditional rhythm with slightly calligraphic joins and distinct, pointed finials. Numerals follow the same contrast and flare logic, producing bold silhouettes and clear figure shapes.
Well-suited to headlines, magazine and newspaper-style editorial layouts, and book-cover typography where a refined, high-contrast voice is desired. It can also support premium branding and campaign posters, particularly where strong typographic presence and crisp detail are priorities.
The overall tone is polished and authoritative, with a distinctly editorial sophistication. Its sharp serifs and dramatic contrast create a sense of tradition and prestige, while the flared terminals add a slightly expressive, crafted edge rather than a purely mechanical look.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary take on classic serif forms: strong contrast, elegant curves, and flared finishing that adds personality without sacrificing clarity. The intent appears focused on impactful display use that still feels rooted in traditional typographic proportions.
In text, the strong contrast and sharp details create a lively texture with pronounced vertical stress and clear word shapes. The italics are not shown; the sample indicates a confident roman suitable for display sizes where its terminals and brackets can read clearly.
