A refined serif with extreme stroke contrast, hairline horizontals, and crisp wedge-like serifs. Curves are drawn with taut, glossy tension and frequent needle-thin joins, giving counters a sculpted, high-fashion feel. Capitals read tall and poised with generous internal space, while lowercase forms show a slightly more expressive construction—seen in the slender, looping descenders and occasional teardrop or hooked terminals. The overall rhythm is clean and vertical, with delicate cross-strokes and narrow connecting strokes that emphasize a polished, print-oriented texture.
Best suited to display contexts where fine detail can be preserved—fashion and lifestyle headlines, magazine mastheads, premium packaging, and elegant invitations. It can work for short editorial blocks at comfortable sizes with careful typesetting, but its delicate hairlines favor high-resolution print or well-rendered on-screen use.
The tone is elegant and dramatic, projecting luxury and editorial sophistication. Its sharp contrasts and fine details suggest prestige and ceremony, while the occasional flourished terminals add a subtle couture flair rather than a purely sober bookish voice.
The design appears aimed at a contemporary, high-contrast serif look that references classic modern serifs while adding a touch of ornamental finesse in select lowercase shapes. It prioritizes visual sophistication and punchy contrast for headline impact and brand polish.
In text settings, the very thin strokes create sparkle and pronounced light–dark patterning, especially around joins and crossbars. The numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, mixing sturdy verticals with hairline curves, which reinforces a stylish, display-friendly character.
