A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and sharply weighted verticals, producing a crisp, engraved look. Serifs are fine and neatly bracketed, with pointed terminals and delicate joins that emphasize precision. Uppercase forms feel stately and narrow-leaning with generous counters, while the lowercase shows a compact, text-oriented rhythm with clear stroke modulation and tidy bowls. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with elegant curves and thin connecting strokes that read best when given room.
Well suited for magazine headlines, luxury branding, and packaging where elegance and contrast are assets. It also works for invitations, pull quotes, and high-impact editorial typography, especially at larger sizes with ample spacing and high-quality printing or rendering.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, leaning toward fashion and editorial aesthetics. Its sharp contrast and fine details convey sophistication and a slightly dramatic, display-forward presence.
The letterforms suggest an intention to deliver a contemporary, editorial serif with classic roots—prioritizing dramatic contrast, refined detail, and a premium feel for display and brand-forward typography.
The design’s delicate hairlines and thin serifs create a sparkling texture in large settings, while smaller sizes may require careful treatment to preserve clarity. The italic is not shown; all samples appear upright, with a consistent, disciplined stress and a clean baseline alignment.
