A tall, tightly set serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and a strongly vertical rhythm. Stems are firm and dark while hairlines are extremely fine, with delicate, sharp serifs and minimal bracketing. Curves (C, O, S, g) show pronounced contrast and clean, smooth bowls, while many forms feel condensed and slightly varied in width across the set, creating a lively texture. Numerals and punctuation match the same razor-thin finishing strokes and high-contrast structure, producing an overall crisp, elegant color on the page.
Best suited to headlines, magazine covers and spreads, fashion and beauty packaging, poster titling, and brand marks where a refined high-contrast serif is desired. It can also work for pull quotes and short editorial subheads, especially when generous size and spacing allow the hairlines to remain clear.
The tone is polished and high-style, with a runway/editorial feel that reads as premium and deliberate. Its extreme contrast and narrow stance add drama and sophistication, lending a sense of exclusivity and formality. The overall impression is poised and refined rather than casual or friendly.
The design appears intended as a modern, high-contrast display serif that prioritizes elegance and impact through tall proportions, vertical stress, and razor-fine detailing. Its construction emphasizes a chic editorial voice, aiming to deliver a memorable, premium texture in prominent text settings.
At larger sizes the hairlines and pointed details become a key part of the personality, giving word shapes a sparkling, engraved look. In longer passages the intense contrast and tight proportions create a strong typographic presence, favoring display settings over small, dense text.
