A high-contrast roman with hairline horizontals and pronounced thick–thin modulation, creating a crisp, glossy texture on the page. Letterforms are upright and generally open, with generous counters and smooth, elliptical curves in C/O/Q and the rounded lowercase. Terminals tend to be clean and sharp, and the overall rhythm is defined by thin crossbars, slender joins, and occasional needle-like diagonals (notably in V/W/X/Y). Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with delicate curves and fine joining strokes that read as refined rather than utilitarian.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, magazine layouts, and brand applications where its contrast can be showcased. It performs well for posters and large-format typography, and can work for short editorial passages when set with ample size and comfortable spacing.
The tone is polished and editorial, with a fashionable, high-end feel that reads confident and composed. Its dramatic contrast and airy horizontals give it a luxe, contemporary voice suited to sophisticated branding and display typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, luxurious reading of classic high-contrast letterforms, emphasizing elegance and clarity through crisp geometry, open counters, and striking thick–thin transitions.
In running text, the thin strokes and narrow internal details create a shimmering color that favors larger sizes and good reproduction conditions. The design’s sharp diagonals and fine cross strokes can appear especially delicate at small sizes or on low-resolution outputs, reinforcing its display-oriented character.
