A high-contrast serif with a distinctly vertical build and sharp, hairline finishing strokes. Stems are bold and straight while horizontals and curves taper to very fine thins, creating a crisp black-and-white rhythm. Serifs read as thin, bracketless or minimally bracketed wedges, and curves are smooth and controlled, giving round letters like O and Q a polished, sculpted feel. The lowercase shows a two-storey a and g with compact apertures and tidy terminals, while numerals maintain the same dramatic thick–thin pattern and tall proportions.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, cover lines, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks where the dramatic contrast can be appreciated. It also fits premium packaging, invitations, and event collateral, especially when printed well or used at larger sizes on screen.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, projecting a couture, magazine-like sophistication. Its extreme contrast and clean, upright stance feel formal and curated, with a calm, premium voice that suggests ceremony and taste rather than casual readability.
The design appears intended to deliver a modernized classical serif voice: high-contrast, upright, and meticulously finished for stylish editorial typography. It prioritizes elegance and impact, emphasizing sharp detail and refined proportions for attention-grabbing display use.
Thin strokes become extremely delicate in counters, joins, and cross-strokes, so the design reads best when given enough size and breathing room. The letterforms favor sharp precision over softness, and the narrow set gives lines a slightly condensed, high-fashion cadence.
