A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines against full, weighty main strokes and a predominantly vertical stress. Serifs are fine and precise, often wedge-like with crisp terminals, giving the outlines a clean, cut-paper finish. Proportions feel slightly condensed in places with generous curves and tight joins, producing a lively rhythm and noticeable sparkle in text. Numerals and caps read as display-leaning, while the lowercase keeps a steady, traditional structure with clear differentiation across characters.
Best suited for headlines, decks, and prominent editorial typography where its contrast and sharp serifs can shine. It also works well for luxury-leaning branding elements—logotypes, packaging, invitations, and book or album covers—especially when set with comfortable tracking and ample leading.
The overall tone is polished and fashion-forward, with a poised, high-end character that feels at home in editorial settings. Its contrast and sharp detailing add drama and sophistication, while the classic serif construction keeps it grounded and authoritative.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif voice that evokes classic refinement while remaining clean and modern in execution. It prioritizes visual impact and elegance, balancing traditional letterform structure with dramatic stroke modulation for strong typographic presence.
Large sizes emphasize the sculptural curves and razor-thin connections, while smaller sizes will rely on careful spacing to keep counters open and hairlines from visually fading. The design’s crisp terminals and strong verticals create a distinctive, formal texture that stands out in headings and pull quotes.
