A high-contrast serif with a strongly calligraphic logic: hairline horizontals and joins, paired with fuller verticals that subtly broaden into flared terminals. Serifs are sharp and tapered, with a clean, chiseled finish and pronounced thin entry strokes on forms like T and E. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, and the overall rhythm feels elegant and slightly tense, with narrow apertures and crisp inner counters. In text, the thin strokes stay extremely delicate, creating a bright, shimmering texture and a distinctly editorial color.
Best suited to display sizes where its hairlines and sharp serifs can be appreciated—editorial headlines, pull quotes, luxury branding, and upscale packaging. It can work for short passages in high-quality print or high-resolution digital settings, but will look most confident where fine detail is preserved.
The font conveys polish and sophistication with a dramatic, fashion-forward edge. Its contrast and razor-thin details evoke premium print culture—magazine mastheads, luxury packaging, and formal invitations—while the flared endings add a sculptural, crafted feel rather than a purely mechanical one.
Designed to deliver a modern, high-end take on classical serif proportions, combining dramatic contrast with flared, calligraphic terminals for a distinctive editorial voice. The intent appears to prioritize elegance and impact over neutrality, creating a refined signature look for prominent typography.
Uppercase forms present a stately presence with generous vertical emphasis, while lowercase shows lively calligraphic stress—especially visible in a, g, and y with their tapered turns and fine terminals. Figures are elegant and classic in posture, with thin crossbars and pointed details that match the overall sharpness.
