A very delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and hairline connecting strokes. Serifs are small and sharply defined, often with slight bracketing and tapered terminals that keep the forms crisp rather than blunt. Capitals are tall and dignified with generous interior space, while lowercase shows a traditional rhythm with narrow joins, a two-storey g, and softly modulated bowls. Overall spacing feels open and measured, giving the type a light, airy texture at display sizes.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, and brand systems that benefit from a refined, high-fashion look. It also fits invitations, packaging, and other premium applications where delicate detail can be preserved; for longer text, it will perform best at comfortable sizes and in high-resolution or print contexts.
The font communicates polish and restraint, with a cultured, editorial tone. Its high-contrast strokes and fine details evoke luxury and formality, lending an upscale, considered voice to headlines and short passages.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern-classic reading of a high-contrast book/modern serif: elegant proportions, controlled detailing, and a carefully paced rhythm that prioritizes sophistication and clarity in display-led settings.
Curves are smooth and controlled, with minimal calligraphic flare; contrast is the main expressive device. Numerals follow the same refined logic, mixing straight hairline elements with rounded, high-contrast counters, which reinforces a consistent, sophisticated page color.
