A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and bold, sculpted main strokes. Serifs are sharp and finely bracketed, with several terminals and joins showing a subtle flare that gives strokes a carved, calligraphic feel rather than purely mechanical Didone geometry. Capitals are stately and relatively narrow with long, clean horizontals (notably E/F/T), while rounded letters (C/O/Q) are smooth and tightly drawn; the Q features a distinctive, sweeping tail. Lowercase forms are compact and elegant with a two-storey a, a looping g, and crisp entry/exit strokes that keep the texture lively at display sizes. Numerals follow the same contrast and elegance, with thin crossbars and delicate curves.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, pull quotes, magazine titles, and luxury branding where its contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It can also work for short passages in high-quality print or large on-screen sizes, but will generally be more comfortable in roles where thin hairlines won’t be strained by small sizes or low-resolution reproduction.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, balancing classic bookish refinement with a modern, fashion-forward sharpness. The extreme contrast and precise detailing create a sense of drama and sophistication, suited to premium editorial and branding contexts.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif for premium communication, emphasizing elegance, sharpness, and a distinctive silhouette through flared terminals and carefully sculpted serifs.
In the text sample, the font forms a bright, rhythmic pattern with strong vertical emphasis and noticeable sparkle from the hairlines. Fine details—especially in diagonals (V/W/X) and small joins—suggest it will look best when given enough size and breathing room so the thin strokes remain clear.
