This serif design features pronounced thick–thin modulation with hairline serifs and crisp, clean joins. The letterforms are upright and finely drawn, with bracketed serifs on many strokes and tapered terminals that give curves a sharpened finish. Capitals feel stately and slightly wide in their bowls and rounds, while lowercase forms keep a measured rhythm with a relatively small, neat x-height and clear ascender/descender structure. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with thin entry strokes and firm vertical stems that read distinctly in display sizes.
It performs best where high contrast can be appreciated: magazine titles, editorial headlines, book and album covers, and premium branding. It can also suit short-to-medium text in large sizes—such as pull quotes, menus, or invitations—where its fine serifs and hairlines remain clear.
The overall tone is poised and cultivated, projecting a fashion-forward editorial sensibility without feeling overly ornamental. It suggests formality and care, with a polished, upscale presence suited to refined messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on traditional high-contrast serif typography, emphasizing elegance, sharp detail, and a confident editorial voice. Its proportions and contrast suggest it was drawn to look especially striking in display settings while retaining a conventional, readable structure.
Round letters show smooth, controlled curvature with narrow hairlines that emphasize internal counters, and diagonals (notably in V/W/X) are drawn with sharp, crisp endpoints. The italic is not shown; the samples indicate a consistent upright roman with a calm baseline and a deliberate, classic cadence.
