This serif typeface features strong thick–thin modulation with hairline joins and crisp, pointed terminals. Serifs are finely cut and generally bracketed, giving a sharp yet controlled finish at stems and cross strokes. Proportions lean tall with relatively narrow capitals and a moderate, readable x-height; round forms are smooth and open, while diagonals stay taut and clean. Spacing and rhythm feel composed and airy, producing a polished texture in text despite the delicate horizontals.
It performs best in headlines, pull quotes, and editorial settings where its contrast and detailing can be appreciated. It’s well suited to magazine typography, book and section titles, and premium brand applications that benefit from a formal, fashion-forward voice. For extended text, generous size and comfortable leading help preserve clarity of the hairlines.
The overall tone is poised and high-end, with a fashion-and-publishing sensibility. Its contrast and fine details convey sophistication and ceremony, lending a sense of authority and polish to headings and display typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classical high-contrast serif, prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and typographic sophistication. Its controlled proportions and crisp detailing suggest an emphasis on refined display use while remaining coherent and readable in short-form text.
The most delicate strokes—especially in crossbars, hairline serifs, and the thinnest parts of curves—create a shimmering, engraved-like effect at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, pairing well with editorial titling and structured layouts.
