A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline serifs. The design leans on tall, sculpted capitals and broad letterforms, with smooth, rounded bowls (C, O, Q) contrasted by sharply tapered joins and terminals. Serifs are delicate and precise rather than bracketed, and many curves resolve into pointed, calligraphic-looking tips, giving the outlines a polished, chiseled feel. In text, the rhythm is open and spacious, with strong vertical emphasis and clean, high-contrast strokes that create a bright, upscale texture at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, magazine layouts, and other editorial settings where its contrast and fine serifs can be appreciated. It also fits luxury branding, packaging, and event materials that call for a polished, high-end voice, and can work in short text passages at comfortable sizes with ample spacing.
The overall tone is cultured and luxurious, with a fashion-editorial sensibility. Its crisp contrast and fine detailing suggest formality and sophistication, while the wide stance adds a modern, confident presence.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-fashion serif impression with dramatic stroke contrast and precise hairline finishing. Its wide proportions and sculpted terminals aim to create an elegant, contemporary display texture while retaining conventional serif readability cues.
Numerals and punctuation match the same high-contrast logic, with elegant curves and thin hairlines that can read delicate at smaller sizes. The lowercase shows a classic text-seriffed construction with a clear two-storey a and g, and the set maintains consistent sharpness across diagonals and rounded forms.
