This typeface is a refined serif with strong vertical emphasis and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Stems are sturdy while connecting strokes and serifs drop to delicate hairlines, producing a crisp, cut-paper look. Serifs are fine and generally unbracketed, with squared terminals and a controlled, contemporary take on classical proportions. Counters are relatively tight and the overall rhythm is compact, with narrow letterforms and disciplined spacing that keeps lines orderly even at larger sizes.
It performs best in headlines, magazine typography, and other display settings where the contrast and hairline serifs can be appreciated. It is also well-suited to luxury branding and sophisticated packaging or poster work, especially when paired with generous leading and careful reproduction.
The overall tone is poised and editorial, combining a sense of tradition with a sleek, fashion-forward sharpness. Its contrast and hairline details read as upscale and formal, lending a quiet drama without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-style serif voice: compact, sharply detailed, and optimized for impactful titles and polished editorial composition rather than rugged body-text utility.
Round letters show a clear vertical stress, and joins stay clean rather than calligraphic. The numerals follow the same contrast logic with tall, elegant forms and minimal ornamentation, matching the text’s restrained, modern classic personality.
