A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and weight concentrated in the verticals. Serifs are fine, bracketed-to-minimally bracketed in feel, and the overall drawing is crisp and clean with a distinctly calligraphic, vertical stress. Uppercase forms are tall and poised with generous counters (notably in C, G, O, Q), while the lowercase shows a measured rhythm with narrow joins, delicate terminals, and a two-storey a and g. Numerals follow the same hairline-to-stem contrast, reading formal and display-leaning, with slender arcs and precise end details.
Best suited to display and editorial typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, fashion and beauty branding, and premium packaging. It will also work for short blocks of text at comfortable sizes where its high-contrast detailing can remain clear and intentional.
The font conveys a polished, high-end tone—formal and composed, with a distinctly editorial luxury character. Its dramatic contrast and fine detailing feel sophisticated and intentional, suited to settings where typographic refinement is part of the message.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, luxury-leaning interpretation of a classic high-contrast serif, prioritizing elegance, sharp detail, and a controlled, vertical rhythm for impactful typography.
The thin horizontals and fine serifs create a sparkling texture in larger sizes, while the strong vertical stems keep letterforms anchored and stable. Curves are smooth and taut, and terminals tend toward sharp, tapered finishes rather than rounded or blunt endings, reinforcing a precise, fashion-forward impression.
