A delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline horizontals and crisp, bracketless wedge serifs. The overall construction feels didone-influenced: tall capitals, narrow joins, and a pronounced thick–thin rhythm that creates a bright, airy texture on the page. Curves are smooth and controlled with small apertures, while terminals often finish in sharp points or fine tapers. Lowercase forms are compact and tidy, with a clean two-storey “a” and “g,” a slender “f,” and a slightly calligraphic “t” that adds a touch of liveliness without breaking the upright stance.
This typeface suits magazine and book titling, pull quotes, and high-end editorial layouts where elegance and contrast are desirable. It also works well for fashion and beauty branding, invitations, and display typography in posters or packaging, especially when given generous size and spacing.
The font conveys a polished, contemporary classicism—quietly luxurious rather than ornate. Its razor-thin details and disciplined contrast suggest sophistication, discretion, and a premium editorial tone, making text feel elevated and carefully curated.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, didone-leaning text serif that feels luxurious and precise, balancing classical proportions with a clean, contemporary finish. Its emphasis on contrast and sharp detailing prioritizes visual sophistication and strong typographic voice in display-to-editorial settings.
In the sample text, the very fine strokes and tight hairlines read best at larger sizes, where the contrast and sharp serifs become a feature rather than a fragility. Numerals appear similarly refined, with slender stems and graceful curves that match the text’s overall brilliance.
