A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline terminals. The letterforms are upright with a poised, slightly expanded feel, pairing tall capitals and open counters with fine, bracketed serifs and tapered strokes. Curves show a mostly vertical stress and clean, controlled joins, while details like the pointed apexes and thin cross-strokes contribute to a polished, high-definition texture in display sizes.
Well suited to magazine headlines, pull quotes, and large-format typography where contrast and fine detailing can shine. It can also support premium branding systems—such as beauty, jewelry, hospitality, or cultural institutions—especially for logotypes, titles, and elegant packaging copy when set with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is elegant and high-end, with a contemporary editorial sheen rooted in classical serif proportions. Its razor-thin details and confident contrast suggest sophistication and a boutique, fashion-forward sensibility rather than a utilitarian voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized, high-contrast text serif look that feels luxurious and editorial, prioritizing sharp detail, graceful curves, and a polished rhythm for impactful typography.
In the sample text, the light hairlines and tight interior details read best when given ample size and breathing room; at smaller sizes the finest strokes may visually recede. Numerals follow the same contrast-driven logic, with graceful curves and thin terminals that reinforce the refined rhythm.
