A refined serif with extreme stroke modulation, combining hairline joins and serifs with fuller, gently swelling main strokes. The serifs and terminals often flare rather than sit as blunt brackets, creating a soft wedge-like finish at stroke endings. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, with a slightly calligraphic sense of stress visible in bowls and diagonals. Proportions lean toward the formal: capitals are stately with generous curves and long, fine hairlines, while lowercase forms stay compact and steady, supporting clear word shapes at display sizes. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with thin connecting strokes and pronounced thick–thin transitions.
Best suited to magazine headlines, lookbooks, premium packaging, and brand marks where sharp contrast and refined detailing can be showcased. It also works well for short pull quotes, invitations, and large-format posters, especially when paired with a restrained sans for supporting text.
The overall tone is polished and luxe, projecting a high-end editorial sensibility. Its dramatic contrast and delicate hairlines feel fashionable and contemporary while still rooted in classical serif manners. The flared endings add a subtle sculptural softness that keeps it from feeling purely rigid or mechanical.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary luxury serif for display typography, emphasizing dramatic contrast and sculpted flare at terminals to create a distinctive, high-fashion voice. It balances classical proportions with a modern, minimal crispness to stay versatile across branding and editorial contexts.
In text settings the hairlines and tight joins read as intentionally delicate, favoring larger sizes and clean reproduction where the contrast can remain crisp. The rhythm is crisp and vertical, and the flare at terminals gives headlines a distinctive sparkle without resorting to ornate detailing.
