A high-contrast serif with hairline connecting strokes and prominent thick–thin modulation, giving the letters a sculpted, glossy presence. Serifs are fine and sharp with a mostly modern, tapered finish, while curves show a controlled, vertical-stress feel in bowls and rounds. Proportions are balanced and relatively narrow-to-moderate, with smooth joins, clean apertures, and a consistent rhythm that holds up from display caps to text-size lowercase. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, mixing slender stems with broad curves for a polished, editorial texture.
Well-suited to magazine typography, fashion and beauty branding, and high-end packaging where contrast and refinement are desirable. It performs especially well in headlines, pull quotes, and titling, and can also serve for short blocks of text when set with comfortable size and leading.
The overall tone is sophisticated and poised, leaning toward luxury and contemporary editorial styling. Its crisp hairlines and dramatic modulation communicate precision, exclusivity, and a runway-like confidence rather than warmth or rusticity.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern luxury serif voice: dramatic contrast, crisp finishing, and an editorial rhythm aimed at premium communication and display-led typography.
The uppercase set reads particularly statuesque and formal, while the lowercase maintains clarity through open shapes and restrained detailing. The design rewards generous spacing and high-quality reproduction where the finest strokes can remain intact.
