This serif displays a highly contrasty, modern-leaning structure with razor-thin hairlines and strong vertical stems. Serifs are fine and sharp with a crisp, clean finish, and curves show a polished, controlled modulation. Proportions feel slightly high-waisted: caps are tall and statuesque while lowercase forms keep a relatively compact, even x-height, supporting a formal reading rhythm. The design maintains a smooth, consistent color in text despite the contrast, with carefully shaped joins and terminals that stay precise rather than calligraphic.
It performs especially well in large sizes for headlines, magazine typography, and brand marks where its high contrast and sharp serifs can read as intentional detail. It can also work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes when ample size and spacing are available to preserve the delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is sophisticated and theatrical, projecting a fashion/editorial sensibility with a sense of heritage refinement. It feels confident and premium, suited to settings where elegance and contrast are meant to be noticed rather than disappear into the page.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, editorial take on a classic high-contrast serif, balancing sharp detail with controlled proportions for polished display typography.
Round letters like O and Q are generously open and cleanly drawn, and the numerals carry the same contrast and sharp detailing for cohesive display use. The italic is not shown; the presented style reads as firmly upright and composed.
