A tall, tightly set serif with pronounced vertical emphasis and slender proportions. Strokes show clear contrast, with thin hairlines and sharper terminals that read as crisp at display sizes. Serifs are fine and understated rather than bracketed-heavy, helping the forms stay narrow and vertical. Counters are relatively tight, curves are smooth and controlled, and many capitals feel columnar, creating an even, rhythmic texture in words. Numerals follow the same narrow, high-contrast logic, looking poised and dressy rather than utilitarian.
Well suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other editorial typography where a refined, high-end voice is needed. It can also work for branding, packaging, and posters when a compact, stylish serif is desired, particularly in settings where narrow letterforms help fit longer titles into limited width.
The overall tone is elegant and cultivated, with a fashion/editorial sensibility. Its narrow stance and refined detailing convey formality and a premium feel, suited to sophisticated, restrained layouts rather than casual messaging.
This design appears intended to deliver a polished, space-saving serif voice with a distinctly vertical, fashion-forward profile. The narrow construction and crisp contrast suggest a focus on elegance and impact in display and editorial contexts, while still retaining conventional serif legibility.
In the sample text, the strong vertical rhythm makes lines feel orderly and architectural, while very thin horizontals and hairline details suggest it will look best when given adequate size and breathing room. The compact letterforms allow dense setting, but the tight internal spaces and delicate joins can make long passages feel intense if set too small or with insufficient leading.
