A finely drawn serif with sharp, tapered terminals and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Serifs are small and crisp, often wedge-like and lightly bracketed, with smooth, calligraphic transitions into stems. The capitals feel stately and spacious, with generous curves (notably in C, G, and O) and a restrained, modernized classicism. Lowercase forms are compact and tidy with a two-storey a, a looped g with a distinct ear, and delicate entry/exit strokes that keep counters open while maintaining a polished, formal rhythm. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, mixing sturdy main strokes with hairline joins and pointed terminals.
Best suited to editorial typography—magazine headlines, pull quotes, and book or album covers—where its contrast and detailing can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding and packaging that benefits from a classic, cultivated voice. For longer text, it will perform most comfortably in well-printed or high-resolution contexts with adequate size and leading.
The overall tone is luxurious and composed, suggesting prestige and careful editorial craft. Its crisp hairlines and sculpted serifs create a sense of sophistication associated with high-end print and culture-oriented branding rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended as a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast text serif, balancing traditional proportions with sharpened, fashion-forward detailing. Its emphasis on hairline finesse and sculpted terminals suggests an aim toward elegant editorial presence and refined typographic color.
At larger sizes the hairline details read as razor-clean and ornamental, while in tighter settings the contrast and narrow joins can become visually prominent. The design maintains consistent stroke logic across cases, with a slightly dramatic, display-leaning presence even in paragraph samples.
