A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline terminals. The letterforms show a strong vertical rhythm with tall proportions, tight fitting, and sharply defined serifs that read as fine wedges and thin slabs depending on the stroke. Curves are clean and controlled, with small apertures and compact counters that emphasize the vertical stems. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, mixing sturdy main strokes with very light connecting strokes and terminals for a polished, display-oriented texture.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and book display typography, luxury branding, and poster work where the contrast and fine details can shine. It can also work for short pull quotes or section heads in editorial layouts, especially with generous size and spacing.
The overall tone is poised and upscale, with a distinctly editorial sensibility. Its dramatic contrast and delicate details convey luxury, formality, and a fashion-forward mood, while staying classical rather than ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography, prioritizing sophistication and impact. Its narrow, vertically driven structure and delicate finishing suggest a focus on display use and upscale visual identity work.
At larger sizes the hairlines and sharp joins create a crisp, high-definition look, while dense settings show a rhythmic stripe pattern from the dominant vertical stems. The italics are not shown; the styling presented reads consistently roman and sharply cut.
