A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and subtly flared stroke endings that broaden into tapered, knife-like terminals. Serifs read as fine wedges rather than flat slabs, giving the outlines a carved, calligraphic quality. Proportions feel classical and slightly condensed in rhythm, with generous counters and a clean vertical stress in rounded forms. Details like the pointed joins, small beak-like terminals, and hairline cross-strokes create a crisp texture at display sizes while remaining orderly and consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Well-suited to magazines, book jackets, cultural institutions, and luxury branding where a high-contrast serif can carry a sophisticated voice. It performs especially well in headlines, pull quotes, and titling, and can support short to medium text settings when ample size and spacing preserve the delicate hairlines.
The overall tone is cultured and elegant, with a quiet drama coming from the sharp contrast and refined terminals. It suggests literary sophistication and a premium editorial sensibility rather than a utilitarian voice. The texture feels airy and polished, lending an upscale, gallery-like mood to headlines and short passages.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary, fashion-forward take on classical serif letterforms, using strong contrast and flared terminals to create a distinctive, premium texture. Its detailing emphasizes elegance and precision, prioritizing expressive typography for editorial and brand-led applications.
Uppercase forms show a restrained, classical construction (notably in the round letters and the diagonal-heavy V/W/X), while lowercase balances compact bowls with long, tapering extenders on letters like j and y. Numerals share the same sharp contrast and fine finishing, appearing poised for titling and layout work where a refined texture is desired.
