This serif shows a distinctly high-contrast build, pairing hairline joins and thin horizontals with strong vertical stems. Serifs are sharp and finely bracketed-to-unbracketed in feel, reading as crisp wedges and tapered feet rather than slabs, with clean, pointed terminals throughout. The overall rhythm is upright and controlled, with tall capitals, a moderate x-height, and compact, carefully shaped counters; curves (notably in C, G, O, and S) display a polished, drawn-with-a-pen precision. Numerals follow the same glossy contrast and show a mix of straight, rigid structure and delicate hairline details, creating a formal, display-leaning texture even at text sizes.
It performs best in headlines, deck copy, and prominent editorial typography where its contrast and fine detailing can be appreciated. It’s a strong choice for magazine layouts, book or film titles, luxury branding, and invitations or packaging that benefit from a refined, high-end serif voice.
The tone is poised and formal, projecting a fashion-forward, editorial elegance. Its dramatic contrast and sharp finishing details convey sophistication and a sense of prestige, suited to refined, high-end communication rather than casual or utilitarian settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast editorial serif with a contemporary crispness—combining traditional proportions with sharp, modern finishing to create a premium, attention-grabbing typographic presence.
In running text, the strong thick–thin alternation creates a bright, sparkling page color, with thin strokes contributing a delicate, airy sparkle and the heavy verticals providing firm structure. The lowercase includes several calligraphic touches (such as the curved tail on the y and the lively shapes of g and j) that add personality while staying within a conventional, polished serif idiom.
