A high-contrast serif with crisp, tapered hairlines and comparatively robust main stems, creating a clear thick–thin rhythm. Serifs are fine and sharply cut with subtle bracketing, and many joins show a calligraphic influence, especially where strokes flare into thin terminals. The overall proportions feel balanced and conventional, with open counters, a moderate x-height, and slightly variable character widths that add a gentle, lively texture in text. Figures follow the same contrast logic, pairing sturdy verticals with delicate curves and hairline finishing strokes.
Well-suited to display typography such as magazine titles, editorial headlines, and fashion or luxury branding where contrast and refinement are assets. It can also work for high-end packaging and campaign graphics, especially when given enough size and breathing room to preserve its delicate hairlines.
The tone is polished and formal, with a distinctly editorial feel that reads as premium and fashion-forward. Its dramatic contrast and razor-like details communicate elegance and authority while maintaining a traditional book-serifs familiarity.
The design appears aimed at a modern, high-contrast interpretation of conventional text serifs, prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and a confident editorial presence. Its consistent contrast model across capitals, lowercase, and numerals suggests an intention to perform cohesively in both short headlines and curated text settings.
In larger text the hairlines and pointed terminals become a defining feature, producing a sparkling surface and strong vertical emphasis. In dense settings the contrast and fine serifs can increase visual intensity, so spacing and size choices will strongly influence the final voice.
