A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered hairlines against strong vertical stems and a distinctly sculpted, calligraphic stress. Serifs are fine and sharp, often bracketed into the stems, with elegant wedge-like endings that give many letters a chiseled, cut-paper feel. Proportions run on the wide side with generous internal counters, and the rhythm is stately rather than compact. Curves are smoothly modeled (notably in C, G, O, and S), while diagonals in V/W/X and the pointed apex of A create a clean, formal geometry.
This font is best suited to display use: magazine covers and spreads, luxury branding, product packaging, and prominent titles where its contrast and sharp serifs can read cleanly. It also works well for short passages such as pull quotes, decks, and section heads, especially when paired with a simpler companion for body text.
The overall tone feels polished and high-end, combining classic book-seriff authority with a fashion-forward, display-ready drama. Its pronounced contrast and sharp finishing details communicate sophistication and a sense of ceremony, lending an editorial, premium character to headlines.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver a modern, premium take on classic serif typography, prioritizing elegance and impact through extreme contrast, crisp detailing, and wide, open proportions. The aim seems to be confident readability at display sizes while projecting an upscale, editorial voice.
The design shows a consistent interplay of thick verticals and razor-thin horizontals, producing strong sparkle at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and formal structure, and the uppercase has a particularly commanding presence compared to the more compact, traditional lowercase shapes.
