A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines against weighty verticals and a distinctly sculpted, calligraphic modulation. Serifs are sharp and elegant, often with subtle bracketing and tapered terminals that create a polished, print-like finish. The proportions feel on the wider side with generous counters, while the overall rhythm is steady and upright. Lowercase forms show a lively mix of sharp joins and rounded bowls, giving text a stately presence without looking brittle at display sizes.
This face excels in headlines, decks, and pull quotes where its contrast and sharp serifs can create striking emphasis. It’s well-suited to magazine design, fashion and beauty branding, and premium packaging or identity work. In longer settings it can deliver an upscale editorial color when given adequate size and spacing.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, with a glamorous, fashion-forward edge. Its dramatic stroke contrast and crisp finishing convey sophistication and authority, making it feel premium and curated. The texture in paragraphs reads as elegant and deliberate rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif foundation with heightened contrast and refined finishing for contemporary editorial and brand applications. It prioritizes elegance and visual impact, pairing stately letterforms with crisp details to create a confident, high-end typographic voice.
Round characters (like C, O, and G) emphasize thick–thin transitions with clean, controlled curves, while diagonals (V, W, X, and Y) stay crisp and taut. Numerals match the same high-contrast logic and feel designed to sit comfortably in headlines alongside capitals, preserving the font’s poised, upmarket character.
