This typeface is a delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline horizontals and crisply tapered serifs. The letterforms favor vertical stress and clean, well-controlled curves, with generous counters and a measured, editorial rhythm. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with sharp, precise terminals that keep strokes looking polished rather than calligraphic. Uppercase proportions feel stately and evenly paced, while the lowercase maintains an open, readable texture with slender stems and careful modulation.
It performs well in editorial settings where elegance and a cultivated texture are desired—magazine typography, book interiors at comfortable sizes, and refined headline or deck copy. It also suits formal print materials such as invitations, programs, and branding that benefits from a classic, high-contrast serif voice.
The overall tone is elegant and composed, with a quiet luxury that reads as traditional and literary. Its thin detailing and high contrast create a poised, formal voice suited to sophisticated layouts rather than utilitarian UI. The result feels airy and refined, emphasizing grace and precision.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic, high-contrast text serif: light, precise, and highly polished, with an emphasis on refined rhythm and graceful curves for upscale reading and display applications.
In text, the thin hairlines and sharp serifs create a bright page color and a crisp edge at larger sizes, while the contrast becomes more demanding as sizes drop. Numerals appear similarly refined and lightly built, matching the typographic color of the letters.
