A sharply contrasted roman with hairline horizontals and terminals set against stout vertical stems. Curves are smooth and taut, with crisp joins and a generally vertical stress; counters are generously open, especially in round letters. The design favors long, straight stems and narrow connecting strokes that create a shimmering rhythm at text sizes, while select glyphs introduce delicate, calligraphic sweeps and tapered finishes. Overall spacing reads measured and airy, giving the letterforms room to show their thin-thick structure.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine titles, fashion and beauty branding, pull quotes, and poster headlines where its fine hairlines can be preserved. It can work in short text passages at comfortable sizes with sufficient leading and high-quality rendering, but its delicate strokes favor print or high-resolution digital contexts.
The tone is polished and high-end, pairing elegance with a slightly edgy, graphic tension from the extreme stroke modulation. It feels contemporary and editorial—confident, poised, and designed to stand out in headlines and display settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, luxury-forward reading of classic high-contrast letterforms, emphasizing sleek proportions and razor-thin details for maximum elegance and impact.
Uppercase forms project a statuesque presence, while the lowercase introduces more fluidity through subtle entry/exit strokes and occasional flourish-like tails. Numerals and punctuation maintain the same thin–thick logic, reinforcing a cohesive, boutique-like voice across mixed typography.
