A delicate, high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline serifs. Vertical strokes dominate and terminate in fine, sharp serifs, while curves show smooth, tensioned transitions and crisp joins. Proportions are on the condensed side with generous sidebearings, giving lines an airy, spacious rhythm; capitals feel tall and poised, and lowercase forms keep a measured, conventional structure. Numerals and punctuation follow the same polished contrast, with thin crossbars and refined terminals that favor display clarity over ruggedness.
Best suited to headlines, magazine spreads, and branding systems where elegant contrast and fine detailing can be appreciated. It works especially well for titles, pull quotes, and upscale packaging or invitations, and is most comfortable at display sizes where the hairlines and serifs stay crisp.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, evoking contemporary editorial and fashion contexts. Its crisp contrast and restrained detailing communicate sophistication and formality, with a cool, modern sheen rather than a warm or handmade feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-end serif voice: sharp, refined, and visually economical, emphasizing verticality and contrast for striking typographic presence in editorial and brand-led applications.
In continuous text the hairline features remain prominent, producing a bright, shimmering texture at larger sizes. The design’s precision comes through in consistent stress and carefully controlled terminals, giving it a clean, curated look.
