A high-contrast serif with hairline joins and fine, sharply cut serifs. Stems are tall and clean, with smooth transitions into thin horizontals and delicate curves, creating an airy page color. Capitals feel formal and carefully proportioned with narrow cross-strokes and tapered terminals, while the lowercase shows a modest, bookish rhythm with compact counters and a notably small x-height. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, reading as display-oriented with slender strokes and poised curves.
Well suited to magazine headlines, pull quotes, and luxury branding where contrast and finesse are assets. It can also work for book covers and curated packaging, especially when set with comfortable leading and not pushed to very small sizes.
The overall tone is polished and cultivated, evoking fashion and literary publishing rather than utilitarian text. Its crisp contrast and restrained construction give it a composed, upscale character with a slightly dramatic, high-end editorial edge.
The font appears designed to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif styling, prioritizing sophistication, sharp detail, and a refined reading rhythm for display and editorial settings.
The design relies on fine details—thin hairlines, pointed joins, and precise serif endings—so it presents best when allowed sufficient size and spacing. In running text the small x-height and bright, high-contrast texture emphasize elegance over robustness.
