JOSEFOV is-- as the name suggests-- directly derived from the sans serif text typeface Josef.
Here also originates the touch of the unusual relation of large x-height to the extremely short ascenders, even for modern-day serif fonts. The fundamental idea was to create a typeface with heavy rounded serifs in the style of "Clarendon" however which barely resembles that specific font.
In addition, the kind principle of rounded serifs is applied whenever possible-- for instance at the points where the private strokes of the characters sign up with one another. JOSEFOV appears really technical, very built (and genuinely is).
