A high-contrast serif with a strong vertical axis and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. The capitals are broad and stately with flat, sharp serifs and clean, straight-sided stems; round letters show pronounced thick–thin modulation. Lowercase forms feel sturdy and slightly condensed in their counters, with compact joins and a clear two-storey a and g. Numerals follow the same dramatic contrast, with prominent thick stems and fine, precise details that keep the set cohesive at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, deck typography, magazine and newspaper-style display, and other editorial applications where contrast and sharp detailing are assets. It also fits premium branding, invitations, and packaging, especially when set large enough to preserve the hairline features.
The overall tone is formal and editorial, with a confident, slightly theatrical contrast that reads as premium and traditional. It carries the authority of classic print typography while staying clean and modern enough for contemporary branding.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-fashion serif voice: broad, dignified capitals paired with a readable lowercase, using dramatic contrast and precise serifs to create impact in display settings.
In text lines, the heavy verticals create a strong rhythm, while the thin serifs and hairlines add sparkle and definition. The design rewards generous sizes and spacing, where the fine details remain distinct and the contrast feels intentional rather than fragile.
