A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and fine, tapering hairline serifs. The letterforms show a calm, vertical stance with smooth, bracketed transitions into stems and sharp, clean terminals. Capitals feel tall and stately with generous interior space, while the lowercase maintains a readable, traditional rhythm; the two-storey a and g and the narrow, crisp f reinforce a classic text-seriffed structure. Numerals and punctuation follow the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and light finishing strokes that keep the overall color airy on the page.
Well-suited to magazine and editorial typography, fashion and beauty branding, and other premium layouts where a light, high-contrast serif can add sophistication. It excels in titles, pull quotes, and larger text settings, and can also work for carefully set body text where an elegant, airy texture is desired.
The overall tone is polished and sophisticated, leaning toward luxury and editorial refinement. Its high-contrast drawing and restrained details create a poised, cultured voice that reads as premium and timeless rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast text serif: refined proportions, controlled curves, and minimal, precise serifs that prioritize elegance and typographic polish in editorial and brand-forward contexts.
At larger sizes the hairlines and sharp terminals read especially crisp, giving headlines a clean sparkle; in denser settings the texture remains light and refined rather than dark or heavy. Curved letters (C, G, O, Q) emphasize smooth, controlled modulation, and the italicless, upright posture keeps the impression formal and composed.
