A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a predominantly vertical stress. Hairline serifs and terminals read sharp and clean, paired with weighty vertical stems that create a strong rhythm in text. The lowercase shows compact, neatly proportioned forms with a crisp two-storey a and g, narrow joins, and fine entry/exit strokes. Capitals feel formal and steady, with broad curves in O/Q and disciplined geometry; figures follow the same contrast logic, with elegant curves and thin crossbars.
Best suited to large-scale typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, posters, and refined branding where the crisp hairlines and bold verticals can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial passages in well-controlled print or high-resolution digital settings where contrast and fine details remain clear.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, projecting a cultivated, editorial voice associated with fashion, luxury, and classic publishing. Its stark contrast and bright hairlines add drama and sophistication, giving text a poised, high-end presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif voice optimized for display-led typography—balancing classic proportions with sharp, modern finishing to achieve an elegant, attention-grabbing look.
At display sizes the thin details read as precise and decorative, while in continuous text the strong contrast produces a lively sparkle and a slightly theatrical cadence. The design’s crisp joins and minimal bracketing emphasize a clean, modern interpretation of a classic contrast model.
