This serif typeface features extremely pronounced thick–thin modulation with hairline serifs and sharp, clean terminals. The overall construction is upright and formal, with smooth, rational curves and narrow joins that create a crisp, high-end texture in text. Capitals feel stately and balanced, while the lowercase shows a lively rhythm through slender arches, a delicate beak on forms like “c,” and a double-storey “g” with a small ear. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with fine unbracketed serifs and elegant, tapered strokes.
Well-suited to editorial typography—magazine headlines, pull quotes, and section titles—where its contrast and refined serifs can be showcased. It also fits luxury branding applications such as beauty, jewelry, or boutique packaging, and works effectively for elegant invitations or cultural event materials when set with generous spacing.
The tone is polished and luxurious, projecting a fashion and magazine sensibility with a classical underpinning. Its delicate details convey sophistication and precision, giving layouts a poised, premium voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif, prioritizing elegance, crispness, and a premium typographic voice for display-forward compositions.
In the sample text, the strong stroke contrast produces a bright, shimmering page color, with hairlines becoming especially prominent at larger display sizes. Round letters (C, O, Q) emphasize smooth, sculpted curves, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) feel razor-sharp and brisk, reinforcing the refined character.
