This serif typeface is built around extreme thick–thin modulation with crisp, unbracketed hairline serifs and predominantly vertical stress. Capitals are tall and elegant, with smooth, near-circular bowls in O/Q and sharply tapered joins where diagonals meet stems. The lowercase keeps a relatively restrained x-height with long ascenders/descenders and delicate terminals, giving text a light, airy rhythm. Figures follow the same high-contrast logic, with thin connecting strokes and prominent verticals that read cleanly at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography such as fashion headlines, magazine mastheads, luxury branding, and elegant invitations. It can also work for short editorial pull quotes or section openers where its contrast and fine serifs can be appreciated without demanding small-size endurance.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, with a couture/editorial sensibility. Its dramatic contrast and fine detailing convey precision and sophistication, leaning toward a classic, gallery-like elegance rather than a casual or utilitarian voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on high-contrast, vertical-stress serif letterforms—prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and a premium visual signature for headline and brand-facing applications.
In continuous text the spacing and hairlines create a bright page color, while sharp joins and thin horizontals add a distinctly refined sparkle. The design’s delicacy suggests it will look most confident when given room to breathe and sufficient size so the finest strokes remain visible.
