A delicate, high-contrast serif with slender stems, sharp hairlines, and smooth, rounded bowls. Curves are clean and elliptical, with subtle bracketing where strokes meet, and terminals that often taper to fine points rather than ending bluntly. Proportions feel slightly condensed in places with lively, varied letter widths, creating an elegant rhythm; caps are tall and composed, while lowercase forms balance open counters with fine detailing in joins and entry strokes. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and curved construction, reading as classic and bookish in texture.
Well suited to editorial contexts such as magazine headlines, book covers, section openers, and pull quotes where its contrast and finesse can be appreciated. It can also support premium branding and packaging when used at sizes that preserve its thin strokes and delicate joins.
The overall tone is polished and literary, with a quiet sophistication that suggests traditional print craft interpreted through a contemporary, uncluttered lens. Its thin hairlines and crisp curves give it an upscale, gallery-like presence rather than a casual or utilitarian feel.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, contemporary take on classical letterforms—prioritizing refined contrast, graceful curves, and a controlled, high-end texture for editorial and display typography.
In paragraph setting, the strong thick–thin modulation creates a bright page color with pronounced sparkle, especially around diagonals and curved letters. The design relies on fine details and hairline connections, which become a defining character at larger sizes and lend a distinctly formal cadence to mixed-case text.
