A delicate serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and hairline horizontals, giving strokes a crisp, engraved look. Serifs are fine and sharply tapered, with pointed terminals and a pronounced vertical stress throughout rounds. Proportions feel stately and slightly narrow in the caps, while lowercase forms are elegant and open, with thin joins and careful spacing that keeps the texture airy. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, pairing stout verticals with very fine cross strokes and clean curves.
Well-suited to fashion and lifestyle branding, magazine headlines, pull quotes, and refined editorial typography where its contrast and sharp detailing can be appreciated. It also works for premium packaging and high-end identity systems, especially in larger sizes and on clean, high-quality print or high-resolution screens.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, with a poised, editorial elegance. Its sharp hairlines and sculpted curves suggest formality and sophistication rather than warmth, creating a sense of luxury and precision.
The design appears aimed at delivering a modernized, high-contrast serif voice for contemporary editorial and brand settings. Its restrained, upright construction and razor-thin details prioritize elegance and drama, producing a luxurious typographic color when set with ample space.
In text, the extreme contrast creates a sparkling rhythm: vertical stems dominate while cross strokes and serifs recede to near-hairlines. This gives large sizes a dramatic, fashionable presence, but also makes fine details visually sensitive to reproduction conditions (small sizes, low resolution, or low contrast).
