A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, vertical stress, and very fine hairline serifs. The serifs read as sharp and minimally bracketed, giving terminals a crisp, cut-in feel. Uppercase forms are stately with strong stems and taut curves, while lowercase shows compact, sculpted bowls and a double-storey “g” with a distinct ear. Overall spacing and rhythm favor headline presence: dense black strokes are balanced by bright interior counters and delicate hairlines, producing a polished, display-forward texture.
It performs best in large sizes for headlines, magazine covers, section openers, and high-impact pull quotes where its hairlines and contrast can be appreciated. It can also support premium branding, packaging, and event materials that benefit from a formal, high-fashion voice.
The tone is refined and assertive, combining elegance with a slightly theatrical punch. It suggests fashion, culture, and premium editorial contexts where contrast and silhouette are meant to command attention.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, display-oriented take on a classic high-contrast serif: strong verticals, razor-fine details, and a controlled, luxurious rhythm optimized for striking typographic statements.
Curves and joins are handled with a clean, controlled geometry, and the contrast makes horizontals and serifs appear especially delicate at larger sizes. Numerals match the uppercase weight and contrast, presenting as classic, formal figures suited to titling and prominent callouts.
