A sharply contrasted serif with tall proportions and a strongly vertical rhythm. Thick stems are paired with extremely fine hairlines and delicate serifs, producing a crisp, chiselled silhouette. Curves are smooth and controlled, with small, pointed terminals and minimal bracketing, while crossbars and joins stay thin and precise. The overall color on the page is airy and elegant, with wide open counters and a distinctly modernized Didone-like structure.
Best suited to display applications such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, luxury product packaging, and refined identity systems. It can work for short editorial passages and pull quotes when set large enough to preserve the delicate hairlines and maintain clarity.
The typeface projects an editorial, high-end tone—polished, confident, and intentionally dramatic. Its bright hairlines and structured verticality evoke fashion publishing, premium packaging, and classic sophistication with a contemporary edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast serif voice that emphasizes elegance and prestige. By combining rigid vertical structure with razor-thin detailing, it aims for maximum sophistication and headline impact.
At text sizes the hairline details read as particularly fine, giving the face a sparkling texture and strong figure/ground contrast. Numerals and capitals feel display-forward, and the design rewards generous sizing and comfortable spacing where the thin strokes can remain distinct.
