A crisp high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and predominantly vertical stress. Hairline serifs and knife-sharp terminals create a clean, incisive edge, while the main stems stay tall and steady for a composed rhythm. Counters are relatively open and geometric, and the overall construction feels controlled and formal, with a slightly sculpted, display-oriented finish in strokes like S and the diagonals of K, V, W, and X. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, reading as elegant figures suited to headlines and pull quotes.
Well suited to magazine titles, editorial headlines, book covers, and sophisticated brand systems where contrast and elegance are desirable. It can also perform in short-to-medium text settings such as pull quotes or introductions when output quality is high and size is generous enough to keep the hairlines intact.
The tone is polished and metropolitan, with a distinctly editorial and fashion-forward character. Its sharp refinement and dramatic contrast suggest luxury, cultural publishing, and curated brand presentation rather than casual everyday text.
Likely designed to deliver a modern take on classic high-contrast serif typography—prioritizing a striking, refined silhouette and a premium editorial voice. The letterforms emphasize poise and clarity at display sizes, aiming for a contemporary luxury feel without overt ornament.
The sample text shows strong presence at large sizes, where the hairlines and delicate serifs become a defining feature. Spacing appears measured and even, helping long lines feel orderly despite the dramatic contrast, but the finest strokes visually demand clean printing or high-resolution screens to preserve their crispness.
