A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and strong, sculpted thick strokes that often taper or subtly flare into terminals. Serifs are sharp and elegant, with a calligraphic, chiseled feel rather than blunt slabs, and curves show pronounced thick–thin modulation. Proportions lean classic with a moderate x-height and clear vertical stress; capitals feel stately and slightly narrow, while lowercase forms are compact and polished. Overall rhythm is crisp and high-definition, with delicate joins and fine details that become prominent at larger sizes.
Well-suited for magazine headlines, mastheads, and pull quotes where contrast and detail can shine. It also fits luxury branding and packaging, as well as formal invitations or certificates that benefit from a refined, high-end voice. For longer passages, it works best in larger text sizes and thoughtfully spaced editorial layouts.
The tone is upscale and editorial, projecting sophistication and ceremony through dramatic contrast and knife-edge detailing. It reads as fashion-forward yet grounded in classical book typography, giving headlines a poised, premium presence.
Designed to deliver a polished, contemporary-classic serif voice with dramatic stroke contrast and sculpted terminals, aiming for elegance and impact in display and editorial settings.
The design’s thin strokes and pointed finishing details suggest best performance when given sufficient size and breathing room; tight settings may make hairlines and joins visually fragile. Numerals and capitals carry a formal, display-ready character that pairs well with ample tracking and generous leading.
