A high-contrast serif with strong thick–thin modulation and crisp, finely tapered hairlines. Serifs are sharp and delicate, often bracketed with a clean transition into the stems, giving the letters a polished, carved-in feel. The round letters show a pronounced vertical stress, while horizontals stay thin and elegant. Overall proportions feel classical with a steady baseline rhythm, and the figures mirror the same contrast and refinement, including open, airy counters and pointed joins in diagonals.
Well suited to magazine typography, fashion and beauty branding, and other applications where a refined, high-end voice is desired. It performs especially well for headlines, pull quotes, cover lines, and title treatments, and can also support short-form editorial text where a crisp, elegant texture is appropriate.
The font conveys a poised, upscale tone with a distinctly editorial presence. Its dramatic contrast and precise detailing suggest sophistication and formality, while the crisp serifs add a sense of authority and tradition. The overall impression is stylish and premium rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to modernize a classical serif model by emphasizing high contrast and precise, hairline detailing while retaining familiar, readable proportions. It aims to deliver an elegant, premium typographic voice for editorial and brand-forward settings.
In the text sample, the thin strokes and hairline serifs create a bright, sparkling texture that favors generous sizing and solid print or high-resolution display environments. The letterforms keep a composed, conventional structure, but the contrast and sharp terminals provide enough personality for impactful headlines.
