A tall, tightly set serif with pronounced vertical emphasis and dramatic thick–thin modulation. Stems are straight and crisp, while curves are taut with a clear vertical stress. Serifs are fine and sharp, with a delicate, hairline feel that tapers into the strokes; terminals and joins stay clean and controlled. Overall proportions are condensed with long ascenders/descenders and narrow internal counters, giving the text a sleek, columnar rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, display sizes, and editorial typography where its sharp contrast and condensed proportions can create a sophisticated voice. It can work well for magazine mastheads, luxury branding, packaging, and pull quotes where a refined, high-fashion texture is desired.
The letterforms convey a polished, high-end tone with a poised, runway/editorial character. Its strong contrast and narrow stance create a sense of formality and precision, reading as contemporary luxury while still grounded in classical serif conventions.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, condensed serif for high-impact display use, pairing classical high-contrast cues with a sleek, modern narrowness to maximize sophistication and visual drama in limited horizontal space.
In longer text, the strong vertical rhythm and tight apertures produce a distinctive, poster-like texture; it will feel most stable when given generous size and spacing. Numerals match the narrow, high-contrast pattern, reinforcing a cohesive, fashion-forward typographic color.
