A very delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and razor-fine hairlines. The capitals are tall and sculpted with sharp, tapered serifs and smooth, high-contrast curves, while the lowercase combines compact bowls with thin entry/exit strokes that keep the texture light and open. Spacing reads measured and orderly, producing a clean vertical rhythm; rounded letters stay glossy and controlled, and diagonals (V, W, Y, x) feel crisp and neatly tensioned. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with graceful curves and fine terminals that visually match the letters.
Best suited to display and editorial typography—magazine headings, fashion and beauty branding, lookbooks, invitations, and refined posters—where the high contrast and fine serifs can be appreciated. It can work for short passages and pull quotes when set with comfortable size and spacing, but it will shine most in larger, well-printed or high-resolution settings.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, with a contemporary editorial feel that leans toward fashion and cultural publishing. Its light touch and bright page color communicate sophistication and restraint rather than warmth or rusticity.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion take on classic high-contrast serif forms, prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and a luminous page texture. It aims to provide a premium, contemporary voice for titles and brand-forward typography while maintaining conventional, readable letterforms.
At text sizes the extreme contrast creates an airy color and emphasizes sharp details in serifs and joins; the design’s personality is most apparent where fine terminals and curved strokes can breathe. The italic is not shown, and the presentation suggests a style intended to look pristine on white backgrounds with generous leading.
