A high-contrast serif with sharp hairlines and weighty main stems, creating a distinctly vertical rhythm. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with pointed, slightly tapered terminals and crisp joins that feel engraved rather than blunt. The lowercase shows compact, controlled forms with relatively small apertures and a steady, upright axis; the italic is not shown, and roman shapes dominate. Numerals and capitals present a stately presence, with smooth curves on round letters and narrow, tensioned counters that reinforce the refined texture at text and display sizes.
Well-suited to editorial design such as magazine headlines, section openers, and pull quotes where its contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It also fits book covers, luxury branding, and formal stationery, and can work for short to medium text settings when size, leading, and output quality protect the thin strokes.
The overall tone is polished and authoritative, with a fashion/editorial elegance and a hint of traditional book typography. The strong thick–thin contrast and precise detailing convey formality and a premium, curated feel.
The letterforms appear intended to deliver a classic, high-contrast serif voice with a contemporary sharpness—balancing traditional proportions with crisp, fashion-forward refinement for prominent typographic moments.
In continuous text the contrast produces a lively sparkle, especially around joins and terminals, while the heavy vertical stems keep lines feeling structured. The design reads best when given enough size or print resolution to preserve the delicate hairlines and fine serifs.
