A refined serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and hairline connecting strokes. Serifs are sharp and tapered, with a distinctly calligraphic bite at joins and terminals that creates crisp, bright counters. Curves are smooth and controlled, while diagonals and stems feel slightly sculpted, giving the letters a poised, high-end rhythm. Lowercase forms show a traditional, bookish structure with small, clean details, and numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with graceful curves and fine finishing strokes.
Well-suited to magazine typography, editorial layouts, and book design where a refined serif texture is desired. It also performs strongly in headlines, pull quotes, and premium branding applications that benefit from high contrast and crisp detailing.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, leaning toward an editorial, fashion-forward sensibility. Its delicacy and contrast communicate sophistication and ceremony rather than ruggedness or neutrality.
The design appears intended to modernize classic serif proportions with a couture-like level of contrast and precision, delivering a clean, upscale voice for contemporary editorial and brand work.
The hairline elements and sharp serifs create a shimmering texture at text sizes and a striking, refined sparkle in display. Letterforms maintain a consistent stress and finishing style across caps, lowercase, and figures, emphasizing a cohesive, classical voice.
