This serif typeface is built around extreme thick–thin modulation, pairing sturdy vertical stems with near-hairline horizontals and delicately tapered joins. Serifs are fine and sharply defined, reading largely unbracketed and giving the letterforms a crisp, etched finish. Proportions skew toward tall, display-oriented capitals with generous internal space, while the lowercase maintains a measured x-height and a calm, upright rhythm. Overall spacing and stroke behavior feel precise and controlled, with clean curves in rounds and pointed apexes in forms like A, V, and W.
It performs best in large sizes where the hairline details can be appreciated—magazine headlines, luxury branding, title pages, and refined packaging or invitation work. Short passages and pull quotes can work when set with ample size and comfortable line spacing, prioritizing clarity of the delicate horizontals and serifs.
The tone is polished and high-end, evoking luxury editorial typography and classic print refinement. Its pronounced contrast and razor-thin details create a sense of sophistication and formality, with a poised, contemporary fashion sensibility.
The design intention appears to be a modern high-contrast serif aimed at elegant display typography, emphasizing dramatic stroke modulation, crisp finishing, and a composed upright structure for premium, editorial-led applications.
At text sizes the hairline strokes and thin serifs become visually prominent features, giving the face a luminous, high-definition look on white backgrounds. The numerals and capitals share the same sculpted contrast and sharp finishing, reinforcing a consistent, premium display character.
