This typeface shows a strongly sculpted serif build with pronounced contrast between thick vertical stems and very thin hairlines. Serifs are sharp and delicate, with a mix of fine, pointed terminals and subtly bracketed connections where curves meet stems, giving the letters a carved, high-end finish. Counters are generally generous and oval, while joins and apertures stay crisp, producing a steady, formal rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. The overall texture in text is dark and emphatic, with thin strokes flashing in and out as highlights rather than carrying the primary weight.
It performs best in display roles such as magazine headlines, fashion or beauty branding, premium packaging, and poster titles. The fine hairlines and high contrast also make it appropriate for large-format editorial typography and logotypes where sharp detail can be preserved.
The font conveys an editorial, high-fashion tone—confident, refined, and slightly theatrical. Its dramatic contrast and crisp detailing feel suited to premium branding and headline settings where elegance and authority are central.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast serif voice with a contemporary polish: strong vertical emphasis, razor-thin serifs, and carefully shaped curves that create a dramatic, premium feel in larger sizes.
Uppercase forms read monumental and controlled, while the lowercase introduces more calligraphic modulation in letters like a, g, y, and z, adding personality without breaking the formal system. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with narrow hairlines and weight concentrated in vertical strokes, reinforcing the overall luxe, print-forward character.
