A refined serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline detailing. The serifs are sharp and lightly bracketed, with a polished, engraved feel and pronounced vertical stress. Capitals are elegant and stately with narrow joins and fine terminals, while the lowercase shows compact bowls and tapered strokes that keep counters open despite the high contrast. Overall spacing and rhythm feel measured and upscale, with numerals and punctuation matching the same razor-edged, calligraphic precision.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, luxury branding, beauty and fashion communications, and high-end packaging. It also fits formal applications like invitations or titling where crisp contrast and elegant silhouettes are desirable; for long passages, it will perform most comfortably when set at generous sizes.
The tone is poised and high-end, projecting fashion, prestige, and editorial authority. Its sharp contrast and delicate finishing lend a sophisticated, slightly dramatic voice suited to premium and formal communication.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast book/modern serif aesthetic: elegant proportions, precise hairlines, and a premium editorial texture optimized for impactful display use.
In continuous text the hairlines become a key visual feature, creating a shimmering texture at larger sizes and requiring sufficient size or resolution to preserve fine details. Round letters maintain a smooth, controlled curve, and the italics are not shown, reinforcing a calm, upright presentation.
