A high-contrast serif with a predominantly vertical stress and crisp, hairline serifs. Thick-to-thin transitions are dramatic, with very fine horizontals and delicate joins that give the letterforms a polished, razor-sharp finish. Proportions feel balanced and slightly formal, with smooth, rounded bowls (notably in O/Q) set against narrow terminals and tapered strokes. The italics are not present; the shown style reads as a clean upright with confident spacing and a steady baseline rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and large-format typography where its contrast and hairline details can be appreciated. It also fits premium brand identities and packaging that want a refined, high-end voice, and works well for short text passages in spacious editorial layouts.
The overall tone is elegant and editorial, projecting luxury and modern classicism. Its sharp contrast and refined detailing suggest high-end fashion, culture, and premium branding, with a distinctly dramatic presence at display sizes.
The design appears aimed at a modern, high-contrast serif that delivers maximum elegance and impact in display typography. It prioritizes sharp contrast, clean vertical structure, and refined finishing to create a sophisticated, contemporary-classic look.
In text settings, the thin hairlines and fine serifs create a luminous, high-fashion texture, while the heavier verticals maintain strong word shapes. Numerals and capitals appear designed for impact, with striking curves and pointed detailing that can become visually delicate at smaller sizes or in low-resolution reproduction.
