This typeface is a delicate, high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and sharply defined, tapered serifs. The rhythm is calm and vertical, with smooth, round bowls (notably in O/C/Q) and long, clean stems that emphasize a polished, contemporary reading line. Terminals are precise and often wedge-like, while joins remain crisp, giving the letters a sculpted, print-oriented feel. Lowercase forms keep a moderate, balanced x-height and open counters, and the numerals follow the same refined contrast with graceful curves and tight, controlled proportions.
It performs best in magazine-style typography, luxury branding, and headline or subhead settings where the contrast can shine. It also suits refined print applications such as invitations, lookbooks, and packaging, particularly when set with generous whitespace and careful tracking.
Overall, the font projects a poised, luxury-forward tone—formal, stylish, and measured rather than casual. Its sharp contrast and fine detailing suggest sophistication and authority, with a distinctly editorial polish that feels at home in high-end visual systems.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion serif voice built on classical proportions and dramatic contrast. Its fine serifs and clean, controlled curves aim to produce an upscale texture and a confident typographic presence in display-led compositions.
At display sizes the thin strokes and needle serifs read especially crisp, while in dense text the contrast creates a light, airy texture with strong vertical emphasis. The italics are not shown, and the roman’s detailing (especially hairlines) suggests it will benefit from ample size and spacing in practical use.
