A refined serif with extremely thin hairlines set against strong vertical stems, creating a crisp, high-drama rhythm. Serifs are delicate and sharply cut, with tapered, needle-like joins and pointed terminals that stay controlled rather than calligraphic. Curves show a vertical stress and smooth, polished modulation; counters are relatively open, and spacing feels measured for display and text at larger sizes. Uppercase forms are stately and classical, while the lowercase maintains a clean, editorial texture with compact, well-balanced bowls and a consistent axis.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine display work, luxury and beauty branding, and high-impact posters where contrast and fine detail can be appreciated. It can also work for short blocks of refined text in print or high-resolution digital settings when set with comfortable size and spacing.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, evoking fashion magazines, premium branding, and contemporary editorial typography. Its sharp contrast and precise finishing communicate sophistication and a sense of formality without feeling ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-end take on classic high-contrast serif typography, prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and a premium editorial voice.
The numeral set continues the same high-contrast logic, with thin diagonals and small, sharp details that read best when given room. The italics are not shown; the visible style emphasizes clean upright posture and a controlled, modern interpretation of classic high-contrast serif construction.
