A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline finishing strokes. The forms are tall and relatively compact, with long ascenders/descenders and a calm, vertical axis. Serifs are fine and sharply defined, and curves resolve into pointed, tapered terminals rather than blunt endings. Spacing and rhythm feel measured and airy, keeping counters open while maintaining a composed, column-like texture in text.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other larger-scale editorial typography where the hairline details can stay intact. It can also work for premium branding and printed invitations when used with generous spacing and high-quality reproduction; for extended small-size reading, it will benefit from careful size and contrast management.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, with a quiet, gallery-like restraint. Its fine strokes and crisp joins give it a couture/editorial sensibility, leaning more toward sophistication than warmth or friendliness.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast text serif: minimal ornament, precise finishing, and a polished rhythm aimed at sophisticated editorial and brand applications.
Numerals echo the same refined contrast, with slender diagonals and light top/bottom strokes that read best when given enough size and printing/antialiasing support. The lowercase shows a classic book-ish structure with a single-storey g and smooth, simplified constructions that keep the texture clean.
