A sharply contrasted serif with strong verticals and extremely fine hairlines, creating a bright, crisp typographic color at display sizes. Serifs are thin and pointed with minimal bracketing, and many joins resolve into knife-edge terminals. Curves show a clear vertical stress (notably in O/Q and numerals), while diagonals in V/W/X appear slightly calligraphic, with tapered strokes that heighten the sense of elegance. The lowercase shows a traditional serif structure with a two-storey a, compact bowls, and slender arches, while capitals are broad and stately with pronounced thick–thin modulation.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and editorial titling, brand marks, and premium packaging where the hairlines can be preserved. It will also work well for posters, pull quotes, and short subheads where the dramatic contrast is an asset rather than a readability constraint.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, with a dramatic contrast that reads as fashion-forward and editorial. It conveys sophistication and poise, leaning toward classic luxury rather than casual or utilitarian communication.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern take on a high-contrast, vertical-stress serif for elegant display typography, prioritizing sharp refinement and visual drama over ruggedness or small-size text economy.
In the text sample, the contrast and hairlines create striking word shapes but also make fine details more delicate, especially in dense settings and around punctuation. The numerals echo the same vertical-stress construction, giving dates and figures a formal, display-oriented presence.
