A delicate, hairline serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered serifs. Curves are smooth and controlled, while terminals often end in fine points or subtle wedges that emphasize a polished, high-contrast rhythm. Proportions feel classical with relatively narrow joins and generous interior counters, and the overall color on the page stays bright and open due to the very light hairlines.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, premium packaging, and brand marks where its high contrast can read as intentional sophistication. It also works well for invitations and formal stationery, especially at larger sizes where the hairline details remain clear.
The tone is sophisticated and poised, with a couture, editorial sensibility. Its sharp contrast and clean finishing convey luxury, formality, and a calm, high-end restraint rather than warmth or ruggedness.
This design appears intended to deliver a modernized, high-fashion take on classic high-contrast serif letterforms, prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and a bright page texture for premium display typography.
In text, the thin horizontals and hairline details become a defining feature, producing an airy texture with strong vertical emphasis. Numerals and capitals echo the same refined contrast and sharp detailing, making the design feel consistent across letters and figures.
