A delicate, hairline serif with pronounced stroke contrast and a strongly vertical, upright stance. The letterforms are tall and condensed, with long ascenders and descenders and a tight, refined rhythm across words. Serifs are fine and sharply finished, and many curves terminate in tapered, teardrop-like ball terminals (notably on forms such as C, J, S, and several numerals), adding a subtle ornamental touch. Counters are narrow and the joins are crisp, giving the design a precise, dressy texture in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to large-size typography where its fine detailing and contrast can shine—magazine headlines, section openers, fashion and beauty layouts, boutique packaging, and premium brand marks. It also works well for pull quotes or titling in print and high-resolution digital environments where thin strokes remain visible.
The overall tone is poised and high-end, combining classical sophistication with a fashionable, contemporary spareness. Its thin strokes and jewelry-like terminals read as luxurious and curated, lending a sense of exclusivity and polish rather than warmth or informality.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-fashion serif voice in a compact, vertical footprint, emphasizing elegance through extreme contrast, crisp finishing, and decorative terminals. Its proportions and detailing suggest a focus on display-led editorial and branding applications where sophistication and visual drama are priorities.
In the sample text, the extreme contrast and thin horizontals create an airy page color that feels best at larger sizes; in dense settings the finest strokes can visually recede. Numerals follow the same elegant contrast and include delicate curves and occasional terminal detailing that aligns with the alphabet’s refined character.
