A high-contrast serif with strong vertical emphasis and hairline connecting strokes that create a crisp, sculpted rhythm. Serifs are fine and pointed with minimal bracketing, and many joins resolve into sharp wedge-like terminals. Round letters show pronounced thick–thin modulation with a fairly tight, controlled bowl structure, while diagonals stay lean and refined. Lowercase forms are compact and sturdy with a single-storey “a” and “g,” giving the design a firm, contemporary editorial stance despite its classical contrast model.
Best suited for headlines, decks, and pull quotes where its contrast and refined details can be appreciated. It fits well in magazine/editorial layouts, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and upscale identity work where a sharp, high-end serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is elegant and assertive, projecting a polished, premium feel with a touch of theatrical drama. Its sharp hairlines and clean, high-contrast silhouette read as fashion-forward and formal, suited to designs that want sophistication and impact.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, premium display serif built on a classic high-contrast model, prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and dramatic thick–thin rhythm for high-impact typography.
At larger sizes the thin hairlines and delicate serifs become key character features, and the heavy vertical stems create strong word-shape contrast. The numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with crisp entry/exit strokes and a refined, display-oriented presence.
