A sharp, high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, vertical stress, and very fine hairlines. Serifs are crisp and pointed with minimal bracketing, giving terminals a precise, cut-in look. Capitals are tall and stately with generous inner counters and a smooth, measured rhythm; curves feel polished and controlled rather than calligraphic. The lowercase keeps a moderate x-height and elegant proportions, with clean joins and compact, tapered terminals that maintain a bright, airy texture in text.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine layouts, fashion and beauty branding, and premium packaging where contrast and detail can be appreciated. It also works for pull quotes and short blocks of text in high-quality print or high-resolution digital contexts that preserve the hairline strokes.
The overall tone is elegant and aspirational, with a couture, gallery-like polish. Its dramatic contrast and razor-fine details convey sophistication and formality, leaning toward a modern-classic editorial voice rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion serif voice built around dramatic contrast, precise serifs, and a poised, vertical rhythm. It prioritizes elegance and impact in display settings while maintaining enough regularity for controlled editorial typography.
Large sizes show off the crisp serifs and hairline cross-strokes especially well, while the thin details create a shimmering texture in paragraphs. Numerals and capitals share the same refined, display-oriented construction, giving headlines a cohesive, high-end presence.
