A delicate serif with pronounced stroke contrast: hairline horizontals and serifs paired with slender verticals. The letterforms are tall and compact with tight internal spacing, sharp terminals, and fine, unbracketed serifs that read clean and precise. Curves are smooth and controlled, with round forms (C, O, e) kept taut and evenly weighted, while the overall rhythm stays consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. The figures and punctuation share the same thin, high-contrast construction, giving the set a cohesive, polished texture.
Well suited to magazine headlines, pull quotes, and editorial layouts where high contrast and fine detail are assets. It also fits premium branding applications such as beauty, fashion, jewelry, and boutique packaging, as well as formal stationery and invitations where an elegant, airy impression is desired.
The font projects a poised, luxury-leaning tone—cool, modern, and formal rather than warm or rustic. Its crisp contrast and restrained geometry evoke an editorial, fashion-oriented sensibility with a sense of quiet sophistication.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-end serif voice with a minimalist footprint: narrow, vertically oriented forms, sharp hairlines, and disciplined curves that emphasize refinement and visual sophistication.
At text sizes the hairline details become visually prominent, so the face reads best when given generous size and breathing room. The narrow proportions and fine serifs create a light, sparkling color that can feel fragile in dense settings but striking in display composition.
