A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and strong, sculpted main strokes. Serifs are fine and sharply finished, often with a subtle bracketing that helps transition into stems while keeping edges crisp. Curves are clean and elliptical with delicate joins, and the overall rhythm is vertical and poised, giving capitals a stately presence. Lowercase maintains a bookish texture with narrow apertures and precise terminals, while figures follow the same dramatic contrast and elegant proportions.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and section openers where the contrast and fine detail can remain crisp. It also fits brand identities and packaging that want a premium, classical voice. For longer text, it will be most comfortable when set with generous size and spacing to protect the hairlines.
The font conveys an upscale, editorial tone—polished, composed, and slightly dramatic. Its sharp hairlines and refined curves suggest fashion, culture, and premium branding, with a classic sensibility that feels formal without becoming ornamental.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion take on a traditional serif: strong vertical structure, elegant contrast, and meticulously finished terminals for impactful editorial typography and refined branding.
At larger sizes the thin connecting strokes and tapered terminals read as intentionally delicate, producing a sparkling, high-end color on the page. In denser settings, the strong thick–thin modulation creates a pronounced cadence that emphasizes verticals and reinforces a sophisticated, print-like character.
