A refined serif with razor-thin hairlines and emphatic, swelling main strokes that taper into flared endings. Serifs are small and sharp rather than blocky, giving stems a carved, chisel-like finish and keeping counters open and clean. Proportions feel carefully balanced with a slightly formal rhythm, and curves (notably in C, G, O, Q, and S) show controlled modulation with crisp terminals. Lowercase forms remain conventional and readable, with a two-storey g and clear, compact joins; numerals follow the same contrast pattern, with elegant, high-style shapes such as the curved 2 and the open, refined 4.
Best suited to display sizes such as magazine headlines, book covers, posters, and brand marks where its fine hairlines and sculptural contrast can remain intact. It can also work for short, upscale text passages—pull quotes, introductions, and product copy—when printed well or set at generous sizes.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, evoking fashion publishing and classic luxury branding. Its sharp hairlines and sculpted stroke transitions lend a poised, dramatic voice that reads as confident and cultivated rather than casual.
Designed to deliver a high-fashion, premium serif voice by combining dramatic contrast with flared, tapered finishes and crisp detailing. The intent appears to be an elegant display face that still retains disciplined, familiar letterforms for controlled readability.
In text settings the hairline detail becomes a defining feature, producing a bright, airy color and a distinctly editorial texture. The flared stroke endings add a subtle organic warmth compared to strictly bracketed serifs, while maintaining a precise, contemporary finish.
