A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines, firm vertical stems, and finely cut, bracketed serifs that stay crisp at the terminals. Curves are smooth and controlled, with oval bowls and a slightly calligraphic modulation that reads as polished rather than ornamental. The capitals feel stately and spacious, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with compact joins and clean, open counters; the italic is not shown, and the roman shows a consistent, poised texture in running text. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with delicately tapered details and strong main strokes.
Best suited to display and editorial settings where its contrast and detailing can be appreciated—magazine headlines, section openers, book covers, and refined brand typography. It can also work for short passages or pull quotes when set with comfortable size and leading, and in print contexts where fine hairlines reproduce cleanly.
The overall tone is luxurious and composed, carrying a classic editorial authority associated with premium publishing and fashion branding. Its sharp contrast and precise finishing add a sense of sophistication and formality, while the balanced proportions keep it readable and contemporary in feel.
The font appears designed to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast text serif: authoritative in structure, but elevated with fashion-forward sharpness and carefully tapered finishing for premium layouts.
The design leans on strong vertical stress and disciplined spacing, producing a bright, refined page color at larger sizes and a slightly sparkling texture where the hairlines become prominent. Letterforms such as the bowl-and-arm constructions and angled diagonals show careful tapering that helps maintain elegance without looking brittle.
