This serif displays a sharply modulated stroke with very thin hairlines and strong thick–thin transitions. Serifs are small and bracketed, with a crisp, engraved feel; terminals often taper to fine points, reinforcing a delicate, precise rhythm. Proportions run on the slender side with tall caps and compact lowercase, and the overall texture is airy at display sizes. Curves show a largely vertical stress, and details like the ear on “g” and the hooked forms on “f”/“t” read as finely cut rather than blunt.
Well suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, section openers, book and album titles, and brand marks that need a cultivated, high-end voice. It can work for short editorial blurbs and pull quotes where sizes are generous and printing or rendering is clean.
The tone is elegant and composed, with a distinctly editorial sophistication. It suggests fashion, literature, and cultural institutions—formal without feeling heavy, and polished in a way that reads as premium.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic text-serif model, emphasizing elegance through pronounced contrast, restrained serifs, and a tall, dignified silhouette. Its detailing prioritizes refinement and visual hierarchy for editorial and identity-driven settings.
The numerals mirror the same contrast and refinement, with graceful curves and thin joins that look best when given enough size and breathing room. In the sample text, the letterspacing and light hairlines create a bright page color, while the strong main stems keep words recognizable.
