A high-contrast serif with broad, confident capitals and sharply tapered hairlines. Serifs are fine and largely bracketed, with pointed, triangular finishing on many strokes and subtly flared joins that add a carved, calligraphic feel. Round letters show strong thick–thin modulation and tight apertures, while the overall spacing and rhythm read compact and sturdy in text despite the delicate hairlines. Figures are similarly sculpted, with pronounced contrast and refined terminal detailing.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and large-format editorial typography where contrast and serif detail can be appreciated. It can also support premium branding and packaging that benefits from a classic, fashion-oriented voice.
The overall tone is editorial and luxurious, balancing formal tradition with a slightly dramatic, display-forward sharpness. It feels poised and high-end, suitable for designs that want elegance with a noticeable bite of contrast.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern take on a conventional text serif by pushing contrast and sharpening terminals for greater visual impact. It prioritizes elegance and presence, aiming to perform as a refined display companion to editorial layouts.
In the sample text, the dense color and strong stroke contrast create a pronounced texture that draws attention at larger sizes. Thin horizontals and hairline serifs suggest it will look most at home where reproduction is clean and sizes aren’t too small.
