A sharply contrasted serif with vertical emphasis and extremely thin hairlines paired with dense, weighty stems. Serifs are fine, precise, and largely unbracketed, giving the letters a crisp, cut-paper finish. Curves show a pronounced thick–thin rhythm and narrow join points, while counters stay open enough for clarity at display sizes. The overall silhouette is roomy and slightly expanded, with occasional glyphs showing more sculptural, calligraphic touches (notably in the lowercase g, j, and y), creating a lively but controlled texture across words.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other display roles where its hairline details can remain intact. It works especially well in magazine and fashion contexts, luxury branding, and elegant stationery or event materials. For longer passages, it benefits from comfortable size and spacing to preserve the fine strokes.
The face reads polished and high-end, with a distinctly dramatic sparkle from its hairline detailing and stark contrast. It carries an editorial, fashion-forward tone—confident, refined, and a bit theatrical—suited to layouts that want sophistication and visual tension.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast serif voice that feels premium and editorial, balancing classical vertical-stress proportions with a few expressive lowercase details for personality in branding and titling.
In text settings, the alternating dark verticals and razor-thin connecting strokes create strong rhythm and a shimmering page color; this effect increases as sizes get larger and spacing tightens. The numerals match the same contrast and precision, with elegant curves and delicate terminals that reinforce a luxe, display-oriented character.
