A delicate modern serif with tall proportions, strong thick–thin modulation, and crisp, hairline serifs. Curves show a pronounced vertical stress and smooth, controlled transitions into very fine terminals. Spacing feels measured and airy, with narrow forms that keep counters open and letterfit tidy; figures and capitals maintain a consistent, composed rhythm suited to display and text settings where finesse is desired.
Well-suited for magazine typography, fashion and beauty branding, and other editorial contexts where an elegant serif is expected. It can perform nicely for book covers and chapter openings, and for formal materials like invitations or programs, especially when set with generous leading to protect its fine details.
The overall tone is polished and cultivated, reading as contemporary luxury with a restrained, editorial voice. Its sharp details and graceful contrast suggest sophistication rather than warmth, lending a poised, boutique feel to headlines and refined typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary Didone-like refinement: narrow, high-contrast letterforms that create a bright, stylish texture while preserving legibility through open counters and disciplined spacing. It aims to project luxury and precision in both prominent headlines and carefully set text blocks.
Uppercase forms present clean classical structure with minimal ornament, while lowercase introduces subtly calligraphic touches in joins and terminals. Numerals appear similarly contrasty and slender, matching the text color and contributing to an upscale, print-oriented character.
