A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and dense, vertical stems that create a crisp black-and-white rhythm. Serifs are delicate and often wedge-like, with sharp terminals and occasional tapered, calligraphic flicks that add a slightly decorative edge. Proportions skew condensed with tall capitals and a tight footprint, while curves (notably in C, G, S, and the numerals) are drawn with pronounced thick–thin modulation. The lowercase shows a normal x-height and maintains a formal, upright structure; several glyphs feature distinctive ball terminals and clipped or angled joins that emphasize a stylized, display-first construction.
Best suited to large-size settings where the hairlines and sculpted serifs can remain clear—editorial headlines, fashion and beauty applications, posters, and brand marks. It can also work for short pull quotes or titling where a refined, high-contrast texture is desired, but it is not optimized for long, small-size reading.
The overall tone feels couture and high-drama, like classic magazine typography with a slightly eccentric, bespoke finish. It reads as elegant and authoritative, but also intentionally attention-grabbing due to the extreme contrast and sharp detailing. The character is refined and cultured, with a hint of theatricality in the curves and terminals.
The design appears intended as a stylized display serif that borrows from modern high-contrast traditions while introducing distinctive terminal shapes and idiosyncratic details to stand out in contemporary editorial and branding contexts. It prioritizes impact, elegance, and a crisp vertical rhythm over neutrality.
In text, the thin horizontals and hairline serifs become an important part of the texture, producing a shimmering effect at larger sizes. The narrow set and strong vertical stress give lines a tall, columnar look, while the numerals and a few lowercase forms add decorative individuality that can become a focal point in short phrases.
