A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, crisp hairlines, and finely tapered, mostly bracketed serifs. The letterforms feel open and generously proportioned with smooth, sculpted curves and sharp transitions at joins, producing a refined, sparkling texture in text. Capitals are stately and broad-shouldered, while the lowercase shows a traditional, bookish construction with single-storey a and g, small teardrop/ball-like terminals in places, and a clean, upright axis. Numerals follow the same display-leaning contrast, with elegant curves and fine finishing strokes that emphasize a polished, editorial rhythm.
Well-suited to headlines, pull quotes, and magazine or book display typography where its contrast and sharp finishing can shine. It also fits branding and packaging that aims for an elevated, boutique feel, especially when set with ample spacing and clean layout structure.
The overall tone is poised and sophisticated, projecting a fashion-forward, premium character. Its dramatic contrast and delicate details give it a confident, high-end voice that reads as formal and cultivated rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, editorial take on a conventional serif: elegant proportions, crisp contrast, and carefully finished terminals that elevate everyday typography into a more premium, attention-getting voice.
Fine hairlines and small interior details create a bright, airy color at larger sizes, while the sharp contrast can make spacing and stroke delicacy more noticeable in dense settings. The design maintains consistent detailing across caps, lowercase, and figures, reinforcing a cohesive, classic serif impression.
