A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, vertical stress, and razor-fine hairlines. Serifs are sharp and delicate with minimal bracketing, giving the letterforms a crisp, etched finish. Uppercase shapes feel stately and display-minded, with narrow joins and tapered strokes that create strong dark–light rhythm in text. The lowercase maintains a moderate x-height with elegant, compact bowls and clean, upright construction; numerals echo the same contrast and refined, calligraphic thin strokes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, magazine and editorial layouts, brand marks, and premium packaging where its contrast and fine detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for posters and invitations, particularly when printed or rendered at sizes that preserve the hairline strokes.
The overall tone is polished and dramatic, projecting a fashion-editorial sense of elegance and authority. Its sharp hairlines and sculpted curves read as premium and cultivated, lending a classic but contemporary, high-end character.
Designed to deliver a modern take on classic high-contrast serif typography: commanding in caps, elegant in text, and optimized for visual impact in display and editorial contexts where refinement and drama are desirable.
At larger sizes the extreme contrast and fine details look especially striking, while in dense settings the hairlines and tight internal spaces can appear more fragile and demand careful sizing and reproduction. The font’s rhythm alternates between bold verticals and whisper-thin horizontals, producing a lively, sophisticated sparkle across lines.
