A high-contrast serif with sleek hairlines and weighty verticals, shaped by subtly flared stroke endings rather than blocky slabs. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, with pointed, knife-like terminals and crisp joins that give letters a sculpted, glossy finish. Proportions feel balanced with a moderate x-height, while narrow interior apertures and strong thick–thin transitions create a lively rhythm in text. Numerals and capitals show the same polished contrast and tapered detailing, keeping the overall palette consistent.
Best suited for display settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, fashion and beauty packaging, and premium branding systems where contrast and sharp detail can be appreciated. It can also work for short passages at comfortable sizes with ample leading, especially in high-quality print or high-resolution digital environments.
The tone is refined and editorial, combining classic sophistication with a modern, fashion-forward edge. Its sharp terminals and dramatic contrast project confidence and luxury, making it feel formal without becoming overly ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-end serif voice by pairing extreme contrast with flared, tapered endings and precise terminals. It prioritizes a striking silhouette and polished typographic color for sophisticated display typography.
In the text sample, the strong vertical emphasis and delicate hairlines create a sparkling texture at larger sizes, while the pointed terminals and tight counters add a slightly incisive, high-style character. The design reads as carefully drawn and consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, with an emphasis on elegance over softness.
