This typeface is a delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline horizontals and sharply tapered joins that give the outlines a precise, chiseled feel. Serifs are fine and mostly unbracketed, with pointed terminals appearing on several diagonals and curves, while rounds show smooth, controlled modulation. Proportions are balanced and fairly traditional, with a modest x-height, long ascenders, and a composed, even rhythm in text. The italic is not shown; the overall stance remains upright with a calm, vertical stress and a clean, open silhouette.
Well-suited to fashion and lifestyle magazine typography, large headlines, pull quotes, and brand identities that benefit from a refined, high-contrast voice. It also fits invitation and packaging applications where crisp elegance is prioritized over rugged small-size durability.
The overall tone is sophisticated and understated, leaning toward luxury and editorial polish rather than warmth or rusticity. Its lightness and crisp contrast convey finesse and restraint, creating an upscale, gallery-like quietness on the page.
The design appears intended to offer a contemporary take on classic high-contrast book and editorial serifs, emphasizing sophistication through thin hairlines, precise serifs, and a controlled, even texture in running text at larger sizes.
In the sample text, the fine hairlines and tight joins read best when given generous size and spacing; at smaller sizes the most delicate strokes may visually recede. Numerals and capitals feel display-oriented, pairing a formal structure with sharp, stylish detailing.
