A very delicate serif with extreme stroke modulation: razor-thin hairlines, sharp joins, and strong vertical emphasis. Serifs are fine and precise with minimal bracketing, giving terminals a crisp, cut-like finish. Proportions are compact and generally narrow, with tall capitals and slender bowls; counters stay open but feel taut due to the thin connecting strokes. In text, the rhythm is clean and even, with a bright page color and pronounced thick–thin contrast that makes vertical stems read clearly while horizontals recede.
Best suited to display sizes where its hairlines and fine serifs can remain intact—magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and high-impact posters. It can work for short editorial passages at comfortable sizes and generous leading, but will reward careful typesetting and strong printing or screen rendering.
The overall tone is poised and luxury-leaning, with a cool, contemporary polish. Its sharp contrast and immaculate detailing suggest sophistication and restraint rather than warmth or casualness.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic high-fashion contrast serif feel with a modern, sharply engineered finish—prioritizing elegance, vertical clarity, and a luminous typographic color in display and editorial contexts.
The numerals mirror the letterforms’ elegance with thin cross-strokes and refined curves, keeping a consistent, high-end texture. The italic is not shown; all samples read as upright, emphasizing a statuesque, editorial presence.
