A hairline, high-contrast serif with sharply tapered terminals and long, delicate curves. Stencil-like bridges interrupt several strokes, creating clean breaks that read as intentional cutouts rather than distress. The design leans toward a modern/Didone structure: narrow joins, pointed apexes on diagonals (notably in V/W/X), and open, round bowls with thin connecting strokes. Lowercase forms are airy and restrained, with single-storey a and g, a slim, curved descender on y, and light, minimal punctuation-like detailing throughout.
Best suited to display applications such as magazine titles, fashion headlines, boutique branding, premium packaging, and refined poster work where its hairline contrast and bridged details can be appreciated. It also works for short pull quotes or invitations when set at larger sizes with ample whitespace.
The overall tone is luxurious and poised, with a gallery-and-runway sensibility. The stencil breaks add a crafted, bespoke edge—more boutique branding than industrial signage—while the extreme thin/thick rhythm keeps the voice crisp and upscale.
The font appears designed to merge modern high-fashion serif elegance with a deliberate stencil construction, creating a signature look that feels both precise and crafted. The intention seems to be strong visual identity for high-end display typography rather than neutral body text.
The numerals follow the same hairline-and-contrast logic, with elegant curves and fine crossbars; straight-sided figures (like 1 and 7) appear especially razor-thin. In text, the bridged details remain visible and give words a distinctive shimmer, but the very fine hairlines suggest it will read best with generous sizing and comfortable spacing.
