A refined serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and hairline details that stay crisp at display sizes. Serifs are sharp and tapered, with clean, modern terminals and a generally vertical stress that gives the forms a poised, upright stance. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, while joins and spurs feel precise, producing a polished rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. Overall proportions lean toward a formal, display-leaning text serif: open counters, relatively compact lowercase, and a consistent, carefully spaced silhouette.
Best suited to editorial layouts, magazine heads, and brand systems that want a premium, high-fashion tone. It excels in large sizes for titles, pull quotes, and posters where the hairlines and contrast can shine, and it can also support short-form text when paired with generous size and leading.
The typeface conveys a luxe, editorial sensibility—cool, composed, and fashion-forward. Its high precision and delicate hairlines read as premium and curated, lending an impression of sophistication rather than warmth or rusticity.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serifs, prioritizing elegance, clarity of silhouette, and dramatic typographic color for editorial and brand-driven applications.
The design’s sharp serifs and fine connecting strokes create striking sparkle in headlines, while the long, clean verticals and smooth bowls keep paragraphs looking orderly. Numerals share the same chiselled contrast and feel suited to refined settings like dates, prices, and pull quotes.
