A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and strong vertical stress, pairing thick stems with delicate, precise serifs. The letterforms feel carefully sculpted: bowls are smooth and rounded, terminals are sharp and clean, and joins stay crisp even where strokes taper dramatically. Proportions lean slightly narrow in many capitals, while the overall rhythm remains steady and composed; italics are not shown, and the roman keeps a poised, upright stance. Numerals and punctuation follow the same contrasty logic, with fine details that read best when given sufficient size and whitespace.
Best suited to headlines, deck titles, pull quotes, and magazine-style layouts where contrast and refinement are desirable. It also fits luxury branding, packaging, and identity systems that rely on sharp typographic hierarchy. For smaller sizes or low-resolution contexts, it will typically need careful sizing and spacing to preserve the thinnest strokes.
The font projects an editorial, fashion-forward tone—polished, upscale, and intentionally dramatic. Its stark contrast and fine detailing convey sophistication and ceremony, lending a sense of prestige to headings and standout statements. The overall mood is classic but modernized, prioritizing elegance over neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography—maximizing elegance and vertical punch while maintaining conventional, readable letter structures. Its controlled proportions and crisp detailing suggest an emphasis on display impact in editorial and brand-led applications.
In text settings the strong thick–thin transitions create a lively texture, with hairline horizontals and thin joins becoming the most fragile elements. Round letters (like O/Q) and diagonals (V/W/X/Y) emphasize the dramatic modulation, while the lowercase keeps a measured, traditional cadence. The design rewards generous tracking and high-quality output where the finest strokes won’t break up.
