This serif features extreme thick–thin modulation with hairline horizontals and strong vertical stems, creating a crisp, high-fashion texture. Serifs are fine and sharply cut, with tapered joins and minimal bracketing that keeps the forms clean and precise. The letterforms are relatively broad with generous interior counters; round characters stay smooth and controlled, while diagonals and terminals remain needle-like and delicate. Lowercase shows a two-storey a and g with tight apertures and thin links, and figures follow the same high-contrast, display-oriented construction.
Best suited to large sizes where the hairline contrast can be appreciated: magazine and book covers, editorial headlines, luxury brand identities, beauty and fashion campaigns, and refined packaging. It can also work for pull quotes and short subheads when set with ample size and careful spacing.
The overall tone is luxurious and poised, with a polished, runway/editorial sensibility. Its airy hairlines and sharp detailing communicate sophistication and a sense of premium refinement rather than warmth or rusticity.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif look with a premium, editorial presence. Its wide set and disciplined detailing suggest a focus on dramatic headline impact while maintaining classical proportions and a controlled typographic rhythm.
At text sizes the hairline strokes and very fine serifs become visually dominant characteristics, so spacing and reproduction quality will strongly affect clarity. The ampersand and numerals echo the same refined contrast, contributing to a cohesive, upscale voice across mixed typography.
