A sharply drawn, high-contrast roman with hairline horizontals and bracketed, wedge-like finishing strokes that read as serifed terminals in many letters. Curves are smooth and generous, with pronounced thick–thin transitions and a slightly calligraphic stress. Uppercase forms feel wide and open, while the lowercase shows more varied construction: single-storey a, a looping g with a prominent ear, and a slender, curving f with a small top hook. Numerals are similarly high-contrast and stylized, with elegant bowls and fine entry/exit strokes that emphasize a polished, display-oriented rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and book display typography, and luxury-oriented branding where high contrast and refined detailing are assets. It can work for short passages in spacious editorial layouts, but the fine hairlines and sharp transitions suggest using it with ample size, leading, and careful color/print considerations.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, combining classic bookish refinement with a fashion-forward sharpness. Its dramatic contrast and crisp finishing strokes give it a confident, high-end feel suited to sophisticated branding and editorial voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of classic roman letterforms: wide, open proportions paired with dramatic contrast and crisp terminals to create a premium, attention-grabbing voice in display settings.
At text sizes the hairlines and delicate joins become visually prominent, so spacing and line height matter; the sample paragraph shows a bright, airy texture with strong vertical emphasis and occasional dark spots where vertical stems cluster. Diacritics and punctuation are not shown, but the demonstrated letters maintain a consistent contrast model and a disciplined, upright stance.
