A refined serif with pronounced contrast between thick vertical stems and extremely fine hairlines, creating a crisp, glossy texture on the page. Serifs are delicate and sharply cut, with mostly unbracketed joins and clean, pointed terminals. Proportions are compact and column-friendly, with tall capitals and notably long ascenders and descenders that give lines a stately rhythm. The italics are not shown; the overall design reads as a modern, vertical-stress book/display serif with a disciplined, consistent stroke model across letters and figures.
Well suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, book jackets, and elegant branding where a sophisticated serif voice is needed. It can also serve for short-form text such as pull quotes or section headers, especially when printed or displayed large enough to preserve its fine details.
The tone is polished and cultivated, evoking fashion and literary publishing rather than casual or utilitarian settings. Its razor-thin details and poised proportions communicate luxury, seriousness, and a contemporary take on classical typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-end, modern-classical serif look with dramatic contrast and precise, hairline finishing. It prioritizes elegance and typographic sparkle, aiming for a confident editorial presence over ruggedness or neutrality.
The numerals and capitals share the same high-contrast logic, with slender horizontals and strong verticals that emphasize a vertical cadence. Counters stay relatively tight, and the thin joins and hairline serifs make the face feel at its best when given generous size and comfortable spacing.
