A delicate serif with hairline-thin joins and pronounced thick–thin contrast, driven by strong vertical stems and finely tapered serifs. Proportions are tall and condensed, with narrow counters and a brisk, vertical rhythm that keeps lines feeling crisp and controlled. Curves are clean and restrained, and terminals often finish in small, sharp points or subtle wedges, giving the design a precise, high-end texture in both caps and lowercase.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, cultural posters, invitations, and upscale packaging. It can work for short pull quotes or subheads where a sophisticated, high-contrast voice is desired, especially when set with generous spacing and in larger sizes.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, projecting a fashion-forward, gallery-like sophistication. Its lightness and contrast create an airy, luxurious feel that reads as modern editorial rather than warm or rustic.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion serif voice with maximal contrast and minimal stroke weight, prioritizing elegance and vertical refinement for titling and editorial applications.
In the samples, the extreme contrast and tight widths make letterspacing and size choices important: at small sizes the hairlines may visually recede, while at display sizes the fine detailing and vertical cadence become a key feature. Numerals follow the same refined, high-contrast approach, supporting a consistent look in headlines and titling.
