A high-contrast serif with hairline joins and sharp, tapered terminals that create a crisp, polished silhouette. Stems are firm and vertical, while bowls and curves transition quickly into thin connecting strokes, producing a distinctly “modern” rhythm. Serifs read as fine and lightly bracketed, with pointed, wedge-like details on several diagonals and curves. Proportions feel classical and slightly condensed in many capitals, with strong vertical emphasis and smooth, continuous curves in round letters; figures and punctuation match the same refined contrast and edge sharpness.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other larger-scale editorial applications where the hairlines can stay clear. It also fits luxury branding and premium packaging that benefit from high contrast and a refined, classical voice; for long passages, it will be most comfortable when set with generous size and spacing.
The overall tone is elegant and fashion-forward, with a cool, authoritative presence. The stark contrast and clean finishing give it a premium, editorial feel that reads as poised and deliberate rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif voice that bridges classical proportions with sharper, more fashion-oriented detailing. Its visual system prioritizes elegance and impact through crisp terminals, pronounced modulation, and a composed, upright structure.
In text, the thin horizontals and delicate joins create a bright, lively texture, especially at larger sizes where the fine details are most visible. The uppercase forms carry a stately, display-like character, while the lowercase maintains a restrained, bookish cadence with pronounced stroke modulation.
