A high-contrast serif with crisp, hairline terminals and sturdy vertical stems, creating a clear thick–thin rhythm across both capitals and lowercase. Serifs are fine and sharply finished, often with a subtly bracketed transition into main strokes, giving the forms a polished, engraved feel. Proportions lean toward elegant, slightly narrow capitals with pronounced vertical stress in rounded letters, while the lowercase maintains a moderate x-height and compact, tidy counters. Numerals match the text color with similarly fine horizontals and clean, pointed details.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other display applications where its contrast can shine. It also works well for magazine layouts, book and album covers, and upscale brand identities that need a classic serif voice with contemporary sharpness. In longer passages it will read most comfortably at adequate sizes and with comfortable leading to preserve the delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is refined and theatrical: poised enough for formal settings, yet dramatic in its contrast and razor-edged finishing. It reads as fashion-forward and editorial, with a sense of prestige that suits premium branding and display-led typography.
Designed to deliver a classic text-serif structure with heightened contrast and finely finished details, emphasizing elegance and clarity in prominent typographic moments. The consistent stress, sharp serifs, and polished joins suggest an intention toward editorial sophistication and premium presentation.
The font’s color on the line is defined by strong verticals and very delicate hairlines, so spacing and word shapes feel clean and sculpted in text samples. Curved letters show a consistent stress and smooth joins, and diagonals (like V, W, and X) retain sharp, elegant tips that reinforce the crisp personality.
