A sharply drawn serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered hairlines. Serifs are fine and pointed, often ending in wedge-like terminals that emphasize a chiseled, high-fashion silhouette. Capitals feel tall and stately with generous counters and a controlled, vertical stance, while the lowercase shows a compact x-height and prominent ascenders/descenders that create a lively vertical rhythm. Curves are smooth and taut, joins are clean, and contrast is consistently pushed across rounds and diagonals. Numerals follow the same refined logic, mixing sturdy stems with delicate hairlines for an elegant, display-forward texture.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and culture editorial, premium branding, and poster typography where the fine hairlines can be rendered cleanly. It also works well for sophisticated invitations, title treatments, and short bursts of text that benefit from a refined, high-contrast texture.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, with a runway/editorial sensibility. Its extreme contrast and razor serifs convey sophistication and drama more than warmth, giving layouts a poised, upscale voice.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver an elegant, contemporary interpretation of classic high-contrast serif forms, prioritizing striking presence, sharp detail, and an upscale typographic color in large-format use.
Spacing and rhythm read well in the sample text at large sizes, where the thin strokes remain visible and the sculpted terminals become a defining feature. The design’s pronounced contrast and small lowercase body make it feel more comfortable as a headline or pull-quote face than as a utilitarian text workhorse at small sizes.
