A high-contrast serif with hairline connections and prominently weighted verticals, giving the letterforms a sleek, polished silhouette. Serifs are sharp and minimal, while many strokes finish with subtle flaring that thickens into the terminals, lending a sculpted, calligraphic edge without becoming ornate. Proportions read compact and tall, with a controlled rhythm and clear vertical emphasis; counters stay open but are shaped by tight curves and delicate joins. In text, the thin horizontals and fine details create a shimmering texture, while capitals and numerals project a statuesque, display-forward presence.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, lookbooks, and luxury-oriented branding where contrast and elegant detail are assets. It can also work for short pull quotes and packaging typography, particularly when set with ample size and spacing to preserve the hairline structure.
The overall tone is luxurious and editorial, with a poised, high-fashion feel and a deliberate dose of drama. Its contrast and crisp finishing evoke prestige and formality, while the restrained detailing keeps it contemporary rather than historical pastiche.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, high-contrast display voice that blends classic serif structure with subtly flared, sculptural terminals. It prioritizes elegance and visual impact through a crisp vertical rhythm and delicate hairlines that create an upscale typographic color.
Round letters show a pronounced thick–thin modulation, and the numerals follow the same elegant contrast, creating a cohesive set for headlines. The fine hairlines and pointed terminals make the design visually striking at larger sizes, where the flared endings and razor-thin strokes can read cleanly.
