A refined modern serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a clear vertical stress. Stems are confident and straight, while hairlines are extremely fine, producing a crisp, high-definition texture in text. Serifs are narrow and sharp with minimal bracketing, and terminals tend toward clean, tapered finishes. Proportions feel balanced rather than condensed, with open counters and an even, measured rhythm across capitals and lowercase.
Well-suited to display typography where its contrast and hairline detail can shine: magazine headlines, lookbooks, luxury branding, cosmetics and fragrance packaging, and high-end posters. It can also work for short editorial passages or pull quotes when set with comfortable size and spacing.
The overall tone is elegant and polished, with a distinctly editorial and fashion-minded sophistication. Its delicate hairlines and crisp detailing communicate premium, curated, and somewhat formal impressions rather than casual warmth.
Designed to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion serif look with crisp structure and dramatic modulation, emphasizing elegance and clarity in prominent settings.
The design relies on contrast for character, so the thinnest strokes read as intentional hairlines and give the face a bright, airy color at larger sizes. Numerals and capitals follow the same restrained, high-contrast logic, supporting a cohesive, upscale typographic voice.
