This serif features an extremely delicate hairline presence paired with strong thick–thin modulation and predominantly vertical stress. Serifs are sharp and finely tapered with minimal bracketing, giving terminals a crisp, chiseled finish. The overall rhythm is open and airy, with generous counters and smooth, high-precision curves in rounds like O/C/G and the numerals. Uppercase proportions feel statuesque and calm, while the lowercase maintains a measured, bookish cadence with a distinctive two-storey g and a looping, calligraphic influence in forms like y and j.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and elegant titling where its contrast can be appreciated. It also fits luxury branding touchpoints—packaging, labels, and formal stationery—especially when printed well or used at larger sizes on screen.
The tone is polished and luxurious, projecting a poised, high-end sensibility associated with premium print and fashion-led design. Its refined contrast and needle-like details communicate sophistication and restraint rather than warmth or ruggedness.
The design appears intended as a modern, high-contrast serif that prioritizes sophistication and visual finesse. It aims to deliver a couture-like typographic voice with crisp detailing and a refined, editorial presence.
The very fine horizontals and hairline serifs create a bright page color and a delicate texture in paragraph settings; the effect is especially pronounced in strokes like E/F crossbars and the diagonal joins in W/V. Numerals appear similarly contrasted and stylish, with elegant curves and a light footprint that matches the letterforms.
