A crisp modern serif with razor-thin hairlines and strong thick–thin modulation, producing a sharply chiseled silhouette. Serifs are fine and elegant, often tapering to needle-like points, while vertical stems remain clean and steady for a composed rhythm. Curves (notably in C, G, O, and S) are smooth and controlled, with tight apertures and delicate terminals that keep counters open without feeling soft. The lowercase shows a traditional text-seriffed structure with compact, disciplined forms and a slightly calligraphic flavor in some joins and hooks.
Well-suited to magazine layouts, large headlines, pull quotes, and titling where contrast and detail can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding and packaging—especially in beauty, fashion, and lifestyle contexts—where an elevated, tailored voice is desired.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, leaning toward editorial sophistication and runway-style drama. Its extreme refinement and crisp detailing suggest seriousness and taste, with a cool, contemporary edge rather than warmth or rusticity.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif voice that feels luxurious and editorial, combining classical serif proportions with sharpened, fashion-forward detailing for striking typography at larger sizes.
In display sizes the hairlines and pointed terminals read as intentionally sharp and luxurious; in dense settings they create a lively shimmer along the baseline and cap line. Numerals follow the same sculpted contrast, with elegant curves and narrow joins that feel suited to headlines and titling.
