A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and strong, vertical main stems, creating a crisp black-and-white rhythm. Serifs are fine and sharp with a modern, fashion-forward finish, and joins are clean with minimal bracketing. The capitals feel statuesque and narrow in impression, while round letters show tight apertures and controlled, elegant curves. Lowercase forms maintain a steady, readable x-height with delicate terminals and a smooth, polished texture in continuous text.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, section openers, pull quotes, and high-end branding where sharp contrast and elegant detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for premium packaging and logotypes, especially when set with generous spacing and clean printing.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, with an upscale, editorial presence that signals sophistication and formality. Its bright hairlines and crisp details evoke fashion publishing and luxury branding rather than casual or utilitarian settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, polished serif voice with strong contrast and precise detailing, emphasizing elegance and visual impact in prominent settings. It prioritizes a stylish, editorial texture that remains controlled and consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
In larger sizes the thin features read as intentionally elegant and precise, while the strong contrast gives headings a sculpted, high-end look. The numerals match the letterforms’ contrast and formality, keeping the overall color consistent across mixed text and figures.
