A high-contrast serif with strongly vertical stress and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. Serifs are fine and pointed with a chiseled, triangular feel, while curves swell into heavy main strokes that taper quickly into thin connections. Uppercase forms are stately and slightly expanded, with refined joins and sharp apexes on letters like A, V, W, and Y. The lowercase shows compact, sculpted counters and several rounded terminals (notably on a, c, e, and f), giving the text a polished, engraved rhythm. Numerals echo the same contrast and elegance, with bold bodies and delicate hairline details.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, book or journal titling, and upscale packaging. It can also work for short editorial decks or pull quotes where its contrast can be appreciated, rather than for long passages at small sizes.
The overall tone is elegant and editorial, with a fashion-forward, high-end sensibility. Its dramatic contrast and crisp detailing convey sophistication and ceremony, feeling at home in luxury contexts and refined publishing.
Designed to deliver a modern-classic serif voice with dramatic contrast and refined finishing, prioritizing impact and elegance in display and editorial settings.
At larger sizes the thin strokes and sharp serifs read as deliberate, decorative detail, while the dense, dark main strokes create strong word shapes. The mix of razor-thin horizontals and robust verticals produces a striking texture that benefits from generous spacing and careful reproduction.
