A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a strong vertical axis. The stems are substantial while horizontals and serifs drop to delicate hairlines, creating sharp, clean terminations and a crisp silhouette. Uppercase proportions feel broad and stately, with ample internal space in rounds (O, Q) and assertive diagonals (V, W, X). The lowercase maintains a balanced x-height with compact bowls and taut curves, and the numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with elegant, tapered details.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, luxe packaging, and poster titles where the contrast can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial passages when set with generous size and spacing, especially in high-quality print or high-resolution digital contexts.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, evoking contemporary luxury and classic publishing aesthetics. Its dramatic contrast and sharp finishing give it a poised, formal presence that reads as stylish and intentional rather than casual.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, editorial take on a high-contrast serif: elegant, commanding, and optimized for striking typographic hierarchy. The intent appears focused on creating premium impact through sharp hairlines, controlled proportions, and a confident, classical voice.
In larger sizes the hairlines and fine serifs become a defining feature, producing a bright, sparkling texture across words. The spacing and rhythm feel composed and measured, with a distinctly display-leaning crispness in the joins and terminals.
