A high-contrast serif with pronounced vertical stress, combining thick main stems with extremely fine hairlines. Serifs are sharp and delicate, reading as crisp wedges and thin slabs that taper into the strokes, giving the design a precise, cut-paper feel. Proportions lean classical in the capitals with strong, stable verticals and wide, rounded bowls, while the lowercase shows a moderate x-height and compact apertures that emphasize the contrast. Numerals and punctuation match the same stark thick–thin rhythm, producing a bold, polished texture in display settings.
Best suited for headlines, mastheads, pull quotes, and other large-scale typography where its contrast and fine details can be appreciated. It also fits luxury branding, cosmetics and fashion packaging, event identity, and high-end editorial layouts where a crisp, formal serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is elegant and assertive, with a runway/editorial character that feels upscale and formal. Its dramatic contrast and razor-like details create a sense of sophistication and ceremony, suited to statements rather than background text.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classical high-contrast serif: strong vertical structure paired with ultra-thin hairlines for maximum drama and elegance. Its forms prioritize sophistication and visual impact, aiming for a premium editorial presence.
At larger sizes the thin cross-strokes and hairline serifs read with striking clarity, while at smaller sizes the same details can become visually fragile, increasing the perceived sparkle and tightness of the texture. The letterforms maintain a consistent calligraphic logic across rounds and diagonals, reinforcing a cohesive, premium look.
