A high-contrast text face with crisp vertical stress and subtly modulated curves. Strokes taper and swell noticeably, producing sharp joins and clean, tapered terminals rather than blunt endings. Proportions are moderately condensed with a steady rhythm; round forms stay open and evenly drawn, while verticals carry most of the visual weight. The uppercase feels tall and poised with a pointed A and a compact, centered bar on E/F, and the lowercase shows a two-storey a, a two-storey g with a pronounced ear, and a fairly narrow, straight-sided n/m structure. Numerals align with the same contrast and show classic shapes, including a curved-foot 2 and a curled 3.
Well-suited to editorial settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and section titles where a refined, high-contrast texture is desirable. It can also serve book covers and cultural branding where a traditional, literary voice is needed, and it works nicely for elegant titling paired with a calmer text companion.
The overall tone is polished and traditional, with an editorial seriousness that reads as bookish and composed. Its sharp contrast and tapered detailing add a touch of sophistication and ceremony, making it feel more tailored than utilitarian.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary, print-oriented sophistication: a clean, structured letterform system enlivened by strong contrast and tapered terminals for a confident, upscale reading voice.
Spacing appears generous enough for display and short text, and the contrast remains prominent even at smaller sizes in the sample, giving a crisp, print-like presence. Curves and diagonals (notably in V/W/Y) are drawn with a slightly calligraphic swing, helping keep the texture lively despite the formal construction.
