This typeface combines tall, wide proportions with a sharply contrasted stroke structure: strong verticals paired with very fine hairlines. Serifs are delicate and crisp with minimal bracketing, giving the outlines a clean, cut-in look. Counters are generous and mostly round, while terminals and joins feel precise, with occasional subtle flare. Overall rhythm is spacious and stately, with an emphatically vertical feel and an intentionally light footprint in the thin strokes.
Best suited for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and large-size editorial typography where its hairlines and crisp serifs can reproduce cleanly. It also works well for fashion, beauty, and premium brand identities, as well as posters or packaging that benefits from an elegant, high-contrast voice.
The overall tone is poised and formal, evoking luxury editorial typography and classic print refinement. Its high-contrast construction and airy spacing read as sophisticated and slightly dramatic rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern take on a classical high-contrast serif, prioritizing elegance, refinement, and a strong vertical presence. Its wide stance and delicate detailing suggest a display-oriented personality aimed at sophisticated editorial and branding contexts.
The digit set follows the same refined contrast, with a distinctive, decorative ‘2’ and curled ‘3’/‘5’ details that add personality. In text settings, the thin connecting strokes and hairline serifs become prominent stylistic features, favoring display use where the detailing can remain crisp.
