A delicate serif with pronounced stroke contrast and hairline terminals. Curves are drawn with broad, sweeping arcs and fine joins, while verticals stay crisp and dominant, producing a bright, open color on the page. Serifs are sharp and tapered with subtle bracketing, and many strokes resolve in needle-like points that heighten the sense of precision. Proportions feel classical with generous counters and a slightly stylized rhythm, and the lowercase shows a clean, readable structure with modest ascenders and descenders and a single-storey “g”.
Best suited to editorial typography, magazine headlines, and brand identities where a refined, high-contrast serif can read as premium. It will also work well for invitations, lookbooks, and packaging—especially at larger sizes where the hairline details and sharp terminals can be appreciated.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, leaning toward luxury and fashion sensibilities. Its extreme finesse and controlled contrast convey sophistication and restraint, with a slightly dramatic edge in display sizes. The texture feels airy rather than dense, suggesting elegance over utility.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classical serif forms, emphasizing elegance through extreme contrast and finely tapered detailing. Its controlled structure and stylized terminals suggest a focus on display-led typography that still retains conventional text-serif proportions.
The design favors smooth, continuous curves in letters like C, G, O, and Q, paired with razor-thin horizontals in E and F and slender diagonals in V, W, and X. Numerals share the same refined contrast and light touch, with graceful curves and pointed terminals that align with the alphabet’s formal character.
