A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered strokes and crisp, delicate hairlines set against fuller verticals. Serifs are fine and pointed, often reading as wedge-like terminals rather than heavy brackets, giving the outlines a clean, cut-in feel. Curves are smooth and controlled with an overall vertical stress; counters are generous and open, and the rhythm is bright and airy because the thin strokes visually recede. Capitals are stately and proportioned for display, while the lowercase maintains a moderate x-height and a refined, slightly calligraphic modulation in joins and terminals.
Well-suited to magazine and book titling, fashion and beauty branding, and other high-impact editorial contexts where contrast and refinement are assets. It performs especially well in headlines, pull quotes, and large-format settings, and can work for short text passages when size and reproduction preserve the thin strokes.
The tone is poised and luxurious, with a distinctly editorial and fashion-oriented polish. Its dramatic contrast and sharp finishing convey sophistication and a sense of premium craft, leaning more formal than casual. The overall impression is contemporary-classic: confident, stylish, and designed to stand out.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion serif voice—prioritizing contrast, sharp detail, and an upscale silhouette. It aims for a balance of classical proportions and contemporary crispness, providing a distinctive display presence while keeping the underlying text structure conventional and readable.
The numeral set follows the same high-contrast logic, with slender connecting strokes and prominent thick–thin transitions that read best at larger sizes. The sample text shows strong word-shape clarity and a consistent vertical posture, though the finest hairlines suggest careful size selection and output conditions for long passages.
