This serif shows tall proportions with a slim, vertical rhythm and crisp, bracketed serifs. Strokes move between fine hairlines and firmer stems, with clean tapering into terminals and occasional subtly calligraphic joins. Curves are narrow and controlled, with teardrop-like finishes and small ball terminals appearing in places, and the overall spacing feels airy due to the condensed letterforms. Figures follow the same slender build, with open counters and light, graceful curves.
Best suited to display and editorial settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, book covers, and upscale branding where its tall, delicate forms can breathe. It can also work for short passages at comfortable sizes, especially in print-oriented layouts that support its fine detailing.
The tone is poised and cultivated, leaning toward a fashion/editorial elegance rather than utilitarian text. Its thin details and tall silhouette give it a formal, slightly dramatic presence suited to refined messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif voice with a contemporary, condensed elegance—balancing conventional proportions and readable structure with selective ornamental touches for personality in titles and branding.
Several capitals feature distinctive inner curls and swash-like inflections (notably in letters with bowls and diagonals), adding a decorative note while keeping the design largely conventional. The lowercase maintains a steady, readable texture, but the finest hairlines suggest it will look best when given adequate size and contrast against the background.
