A high-contrast serif with strong vertical stems, hairline horizontals, and crisp, finely cut serifs. The letterforms show a pronounced vertical stress and smooth, sculpted curves, with sharp joins and tapered details that read as precise rather than calligraphic. Proportions lean generously wide with ample internal counters, producing an open, upscale texture in display sizes. Lowercase forms are compact and controlled with a two-storey a, a compact, looped g, and a narrow, upright rhythm that stays consistent across the alphabet and lining figures.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and book titling, pull quotes, and other editorial or brand-led typography where contrast and refinement are desirable. It also works well for posters, invitations, and upscale packaging, particularly when set with comfortable tracking and sufficient size to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is refined and fashion-forward, with a dramatic contrast that signals luxury and formality. It feels editorial and classical at once—confident, composed, and designed to look polished in prominent settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast serif voice with classic cues—maximizing elegance and visual drama while maintaining conventional text-serif structure. Its wide, open shapes and crisp detailing suggest a focus on display clarity and premium brand expression.
In the text sample, the strong thick–thin modulation and delicate serifs create a bright, shimmering page color that favors larger sizes and generous spacing. Rounded letters (like O and Q) appear taut and symmetrical, while diagonals and joins (such as in V/W and k) keep a crisp, cut quality that reinforces the tailored look.
