A condensed high-contrast serif with strong vertical stems and very thin hairlines. Serifs are fine and sharply bracketed, giving a crisp, engraved impression, while curves show a pronounced thick–thin modulation. Proportions are tall and narrow, with compact counters and tight internal space in round letters. The rhythm is vertical and disciplined, and the overall color stays light despite the sturdy main strokes due to the extremely delicate connecting strokes and terminals.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, magazine titling, book covers, and other situations where a condensed, high-contrast serif can deliver a refined voice without taking much horizontal space. It can also work for pull quotes and short-form branding lines where elegance and vertical emphasis are desired.
The font communicates refinement and formality, with a poised, literary tone reminiscent of classical book typography and fashion/editorial titling. Its narrow stance and razor-thin details feel sophisticated and slightly dramatic, lending an authoritative, old-world elegance.
The design appears intended to provide a sophisticated, space-saving serif for prominent typography, combining a classical high-contrast model with condensed proportions for impactful titles and controlled, upscale presentation.
In the sample text, the thin hairlines and tight counters become more noticeable as size decreases, suggesting the design is most comfortable when given enough size and spacing to preserve its delicate joins. Numerals and capitals share the same condensed, high-contrast construction, reinforcing a consistent, display-leaning personality.
