A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. Vertical stems carry most of the weight while horizontals and serifs taper to very fine points, creating a bright, airy texture. Many strokes subtly widen into flared endings rather than blunt slabs, and curves are smooth and carefully tensioned, especially in round letters and numerals. Overall proportions feel measured and formal, with slightly generous spacing that emphasizes the delicate details.
Best suited to display sizes such as headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and brand wordmarks where the high-precision detailing can be appreciated. It also fits premium packaging and fashion/beauty collateral, and can work for short editorial subheads when given comfortable size and leading.
The font projects a polished, high-end tone with a distinctly editorial sensibility. Its sharp contrasts and elegant finishing strokes read as fashionable and cultured, evoking boutique branding and magazine typography rather than utilitarian text work.
The design appears intended to deliver contemporary elegance through extreme contrast, fine finishing strokes, and subtle flaring at terminals—prioritizing sophistication and visual drama in display typography.
The design’s fine joins and tapering terminals are most prominent in letters like A, V, W, and Y, where the hairline diagonals and pointed ends create a sleek rhythm. Numerals follow the same logic, with graceful curves and light entry/exit strokes that keep the set visually consistent with the capitals and lowercase.
