A delicate modern serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline finishing strokes. Serifs are finely cut and generally bracketed, with sharp, tapered terminals that keep counters open and the page color light. Proportions lean classical with modest x-height and generous ascenders/descenders, creating an airy rhythm in text. Curves are smooth and controlled, and the overall drawing favors vertical stress and crisp joins for a polished, high-end look.
Well suited to magazine typography, book covers, and other editorial applications where a sophisticated serif voice is desired. It also fits luxury branding and formal collateral such as invitations or packaging, especially when set with generous tracking and leading. It performs best where its delicate hairlines can be appreciated and reproduced cleanly.
The font conveys a refined, cultured tone—quietly luxurious rather than loud. Its hairline details and measured proportions suggest editorial sophistication, suited to settings where elegance and restraint are key.
The design appears intended as a contemporary interpretation of classic text serifs, prioritizing elegance, contrast, and a light typographic color. It aims to deliver a graceful reading rhythm and upscale presence for editorial and brand-forward layouts.
At display sizes the fine serifs and high contrast read crisp and precise, while in paragraph setting the light color produces a graceful, spacious texture. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with slender stems and clean, understated detailing that harmonizes with the lowercase.
