This typeface presents a high-contrast serif construction with sculpted, flaring terminals and finely tapered hairlines. The letterforms show a calligraphic logic: stress is evident in rounded shapes, joins are subtly sheared, and many strokes widen into wedge-like endings rather than staying uniform. Serifs feel lightly bracketed and sharp, with crisp apexes and angled cross-strokes that give an energetic rhythm. Proportions are balanced with moderate caps, a normal-looking x-height, and a mix of narrow and broader characters that creates a lively texture in text.
It suits literary and editorial typography—magazine features, book interiors at comfortable sizes, and sophisticated headlines where contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It also works well for pull quotes, chapter openers, and branding applications that benefit from a classic yet subtly expressive serif voice.
The overall tone is refined and editorial, combining classical bookish authority with a slightly expressive, hand-informed edge. It feels cultured and polished, suitable for contexts where tradition and sophistication are desired without becoming overly ornamental.
The design appears intended to merge classical serif proportions with flared, calligraphic stroke endings to add warmth and character while maintaining a clean, professional structure. Its consistent contrast and crisp finishing suggest a focus on elegant readability and a distinctive editorial texture.
In the sample text, the strong thick–thin modulation stays consistent across lines, producing a bright, elegant page color at larger sizes. The numerals share the same flared finishing and contrast, helping headings and pull quotes maintain a cohesive voice.
