A high-contrast serif with strong vertical emphasis and crisp, hairline serifs. Stems are thick and straight while joins and terminals taper sharply, creating a pronounced thick–thin rhythm and a clean, polished texture in text. Proportions feel compact and tall, with tight inner counters in several letters and a generally controlled, upright construction. Numerals and capitals carry the same dramatic contrast and fine detailing, keeping the overall color dark while preserving sharp definition.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and cultural posters, cover lines, and brand marks where sharp contrast and elegant detailing are an asset. It can also work for short editorial passages at comfortable sizes where the hairlines remain clear.
The font projects a poised, editorial tone with a distinctly dramatic refinement. Its stark contrast and delicate finishing lend a sense of luxury and authority, while the tight, vertical rhythm keeps the voice disciplined and formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography: compact, authoritative forms with refined hairline finishing for striking editorial impact.
Across the set, curves end in fine points and small wedges, and the thin horizontals can become very delicate at smaller sizes. The overall spacing and letterfit read as intentionally compact, emphasizing a dense, high-contrast page color.
