A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp hairline details. The capitals feel stately and wide-set, with sharp wedge-like serifs and smooth, controlled curves; the overall rhythm is clean and measured rather than calligraphic. Lowercase forms are compact and polished with a two-storey “a,” a looped descender on “g,” and small, precise joins that keep counters open. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, mixing sturdy verticals with delicate hairlines and pointed finishing strokes for a cohesive, formal texture.
Well-suited to magazine typography, headlines, pull quotes, and premium branding where contrast and refinement are assets. It can also support formal print applications such as invitations and packaging, especially at moderate-to-large sizes where the hairline detailing remains clear.
The tone is elegant and authoritative, leaning toward luxury and editorial sophistication. Its strong contrast and sharp finishing details create a dramatic, high-end feel that reads as fashion-forward while still grounded in classical book typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary high-fashion serif voice built on classical proportions, emphasizing contrast, sharp finishing strokes, and a polished editorial color for premium communication.
In text settings the hairlines and terminals become a defining feature, producing a sparkling texture and crisp word shapes. The design favors clarity and poise over softness, with consistent stroke logic across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
