A delicate display serif with extreme thick–thin modulation and a strongly vertical, columnar rhythm. Serifs are sharp and finely bracketed-to-unbracketed in feel, with hairline horizontals and crisp tapering at joints. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, counters are relatively compact, and many forms appear condensed with tall proportions. Numerals and capitals maintain a polished, high-contrast cadence, while the lowercase keeps a restrained, modern structure with slender stems and neat, pointed terminals.
Best suited to large-scale typography such as magazine headlines, fashion layouts, luxury branding, and refined poster work where its high-contrast details can remain clear. It can also work for short pull quotes or titling in print and high-resolution digital contexts, where the crisp hairlines and sharp serifs deliver maximum elegance.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, leaning toward fashion and editorial sophistication. Its razor-thin details and poised proportions communicate precision, exclusivity, and a contemporary take on classic refinement.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, couture-leaning serif voice: tall, sleek forms paired with dramatic contrast to create a sophisticated headline texture. Its controlled construction suggests an emphasis on refinement and visual impact over everyday text robustness.
The design’s very thin connecting strokes and serifs create striking sparkle at larger sizes, while dense text settings emphasize a sleek, vertical texture. Round characters show pronounced contrast and a clean, glossy finish; diagonals and joins are kept tight to preserve the narrow, elegant silhouette.
