A refined serif with pronounced stroke modulation: thin hairlines and needle-like serifs contrast sharply with sturdy vertical stems. The letterforms show predominantly vertical stress, clean unbracketed serifs, and a polished, sharp finish at terminals. Proportions feel display-oriented, with tall capitals and comparatively delicate joins in lowercase; counters are generous and curves are smooth and controlled. Numerals follow the same glossy contrast, with graceful bowls and thin linking strokes that read as precise rather than calligraphic.
Best suited to headlines, display typography, and editorial layouts where contrast and detail can be appreciated. It can add a premium feel to branding, packaging, and event materials, and works well for short bursts of text such as pull quotes, section openers, and title treatments.
The overall tone is luxurious and poised, evoking fashion publishing and classic high-end print. Its crisp hairlines and sculpted forms communicate sophistication and formality, with a slightly dramatic, boutique character.
The design appears intended as a contemporary take on high-contrast serif tradition, prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and dramatic light–dark rhythm for impactful display use.
At larger sizes the fine detailing becomes a key feature, especially in diagonals and curved joins, while the strongest verticals anchor the rhythm. The italics are not shown; the pictured style reads as a clean, upright roman with a distinctly modern, polished bite.
