A high-contrast serif with thin hairlines and weighty vertical stems, producing a crisp, polished texture on the page. Serifs are fine and sharply finished, often subtly bracketed, and terminals show a controlled, slightly calligraphic taper. Proportions lean classical with generous capitals and relatively narrow joins, while curves (C, G, S) are smoothly drawn and tightly modulated. In text, the strong vertical stress and delicate horizontals create a bright, shimmering rhythm with clear letter separation and a distinctly formal presence.
Well suited for magazine typography, headlines, and pull quotes where high contrast and crisp serif detail can shine. It also fits book covers, cultural branding, and upscale packaging, especially when used at larger sizes or with comfortable spacing to preserve the thin strokes.
The overall tone is sophisticated and cultured, with a fashion/editorial sensibility. Its sharp hairlines and clean finishing cues suggest formality and precision rather than warmth or ruggedness, giving it a premium, literary feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast text serif: elegant in tone, disciplined in structure, and optimized for a refined editorial voice. It prioritizes sharp typographic color and a premium look, aiming to make standard Latin text feel elevated and stylish.
At display sizes the hairline details and refined serifs read especially clean, while in larger text settings the pronounced thick–thin contrast becomes a defining stylistic feature. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic and look suited to headline or titling use where their slender joins and crisp terminals can remain clear.
