A refined serif with sharply modulated strokes and pronounced thick–thin transitions. Stems and arms terminate in subtly flared, wedge-like serifs and tapered ends that feel carved rather than mechanically squared. Curves are smooth and controlled, with tight joins and a generally vertical stress; bowls and counters stay open despite the thin hairlines. Capitals are stately with generous proportions, while the lowercase keeps a measured rhythm and slightly calligraphic shaping in forms like a, g, and y. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, mixing sturdy verticals with delicate connectors for a crisp, display-forward texture.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and other large-size typography where the delicate hairlines and flared serifs can be appreciated. It also fits luxury branding, beauty/fashion collateral, premium packaging, and refined editorial design where a crisp, high-contrast serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, balancing elegance with a hint of drama from the extreme modulation and razor-thin hairlines. It reads as fashion-leaning and editorial, with a confident, curated presence that suits premium branding and sophisticated layouts.
Designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion serif feel through extreme stroke modulation and sculpted, flaring terminals. The intent appears to be a contemporary take on classic editorial elegance—clean, poised, and attention-grabbing without resorting to overt ornament.
At text sizes the thin strokes and hairline serifs become a dominant stylistic feature, giving the page a sparkling, high-contrast color. The spacing in the sample suggests a comfortable reading rhythm for short-to-medium passages, while the sharp terminals and flared details keep it feeling distinctly display-oriented.
