This serif typeface uses extremely thin hairlines paired with slightly sturdier verticals, creating a pronounced thick–thin rhythm. Serifs are sharp and fine, with tapered terminals and a generally crisp, high-end finish. Capitals feel tall and poised with generous interior space, while the lowercase shows a classic text structure with a two-storey a and g and neatly controlled joins. Numerals follow the same delicate contrast, with open counters and light, precise curves that keep the overall texture bright and uncluttered.
It performs best for large sizes where the delicate hairlines and sharp serifs can be appreciated—magazine headlines, lookbooks, luxury branding, beauty and fragrance packaging, and sophisticated invitations. For extended reading, it is better suited to larger text sizes and generous leading to maintain clarity and preserve its light typographic color.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, projecting a quiet sophistication rather than warmth or ruggedness. Its airy strokes and precise details suggest a contemporary editorial sensibility with a nod to classic high-fashion typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast serif voice optimized for elegance and impact in display typography. Its fine detailing and sculpted contrast prioritize visual refinement and premium tone over sturdiness.
In the sample text, spacing and letterfit read as intentionally open, which reinforces the light color on the page. Thin strokes and fine serifs are visually prominent design features, giving the face a distinctly “dressy” presence in display settings.
