A crisp serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, hairline terminals. The overall build is compact and vertically oriented, with narrow letterforms, tight apertures, and a clean, polished outline. Serifs are fine and precise, often wedge-like or tapered, and curves show a smooth, controlled transition into stems. Uppercase proportions feel elegant and tall, while the lowercase maintains a measured x-height with delicate joins and a lightly calligraphic finish.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, branding wordmarks, product packaging, and posters where its high contrast can read as intentional detail. It will especially shine in larger sizes and on high-quality output where fine serifs and thin strokes are preserved.
The font projects an editorial, high-end tone—confident, stylish, and slightly theatrical. Its high-contrast rhythm and fine details evoke fashion, culture magazines, and luxury branding, balancing formality with a contemporary, image-conscious edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, couture-flavored serif voice with strong contrast and a sleek, narrow silhouette, prioritizing elegance and impact in prominent typographic roles.
In the sample text, thin horizontals and hairline serifs create a bright, sparkling texture at larger sizes, while counters remain relatively tight, reinforcing a condensed, high-fashion presence. Numerals and capitals share the same refined contrast and sharp finishing, giving headlines a consistent, curated sheen.
