A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, hairline terminals. Serifs are small and mostly bracketed, creating a clean, tailored finish while keeping the overall texture airy. Capitals feel stately and wide-set, with smooth curves and a consistent vertical rhythm; the round letters show clear vertical stress. Lowercase forms are compact and disciplined, with narrow joins, fine entry strokes, and a slightly calligraphic taper in places that adds elegance without becoming decorative.
Best suited to magazine layouts, brand identities, and headline typography where its contrast and fine detailing read as intentional and premium. It can work for pull quotes, titles, and short passages in spacious settings, and it pairs well with simple sans serifs for contemporary editorial systems.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, with an editorial sophistication associated with fashion and cultural publishing. Its delicate hairlines and sculpted curves communicate restraint and precision, giving text a poised, upscale presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic, high-contrast text serif: elegant enough for display, yet structured and conventional enough to remain composed in running copy when given sufficient size and whitespace.
In setting, the type creates a bright page color with strong stroke sparkle, especially in curved forms and at serif junctions. The numerals share the same high-contrast build and feel suited to display use where their thin details can remain crisp.
