A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and an upright, bookish posture. The serifs read as subtly flared and strongly bracketed, with wedge-like entry/exit strokes that give many letters a chiseled, slightly calligraphic finish. Capitals are stately and compact with crisp joins and tapered curves; lowercase shows traditional proportions with a two-storey a and g, a pointed, angular t, and narrow, upright stems. Numerals follow the same sharp, contrasty construction, with clear interior counters and pointed terminals that keep the set lively at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and cover typography where its contrast and sharp terminals can be appreciated. It can also work for short-to-medium editorial setting—introductions, chapter openers, or magazine features—especially at sizes that preserve the delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is classic and editorial—polished, serious, and slightly dramatic through its contrast and crisp terminals. It suggests heritage printing and literary sophistication rather than casual or purely utilitarian text color.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classical, high-contrast serif: authoritative and refined, with flared, wedge-like finishing strokes to add distinctiveness and display presence while retaining a traditional reading voice.
Rhythm is relatively tight and vertical, with strong stem emphasis and clean negative spaces that help maintain clarity in longer lines. The pointed terminals and flared endings add personality without tipping into ornate, making the design feel tailored for prominent typographic roles.
