A high-contrast serif with sharp, hairline thins and strong vertical stress, paired with sturdy, tapered stems. Serifs are fine and mostly bracketed, with crisp terminals and a clean, polished finish. The proportions feel classical but streamlined: capitals are dignified and narrow-to-moderate in footprint, while the lowercase shows lively modulation and occasional calligraphic inflections in joins and curves. Counters are relatively open and the rhythm is bright and airy, with delicate horizontals on E/F/T and a distinctive, elegant italic-like curl appearing in select forms (notably in the v and y shapes shown). Numerals follow the same display-driven contrast, with sculpted curves and thin connecting strokes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, mastheads, and other large-size typography where its contrast and sharp serifs can shine. It also fits premium branding, beauty/fashion packaging, and high-end promotional materials that benefit from an elegant, contemporary serif voice.
The overall tone is sophisticated and editorial, projecting a premium, fashion and culture-magazine sensibility. The extreme stroke modulation and needle-like details lend a sense of luxury and drama, while the disciplined construction keeps it poised rather than flamboyant.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion take on a classical serif: maximizing contrast and precision to create a striking, upscale look while retaining familiar text-serif structure for readable, editorial composition at display sizes.
In text settings the fine hairlines and small details read best at larger sizes or on high-quality output where contrast is preserved. Curved letters (C, G, O, Q) showcase the strongest thick–thin transitions, and the numerals share the same refined, stylized silhouette, reinforcing a cohesive display character.
