A high-contrast serif with strikingly thin hairlines and dominant vertical stems, creating a crisp, polished texture. Serifs are fine and sharp, with an overall clean, contemporary finish rather than soft bracketed transitions. Proportions lean toward display-oriented letterforms: capitals feel tall and formal, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with a relatively compact feel and clearly defined counters. Curves are smooth and controlled, and the contrast pattern emphasizes verticality throughout the design.
Best suited for editorial headlines, magazine mastheads, and brand marks where its high contrast can be showcased. It also fits formal invitations and elevated packaging or campaign work, especially when used at larger sizes and with comfortable leading. In longer text, it will perform most convincingly when print or rendering conditions preserve the hairline details.
The font conveys a refined, upscale tone associated with editorial typography and luxury branding. Its dramatic contrast and delicate detailing read as poised and confident, with a slightly fashion-forward, modern-classic character. The overall impression is formal and curated, lending gravitas to headings and emphasized text.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver an elegant, high-contrast voice that feels at home in contemporary editorial and luxury contexts. The emphasis on vertical stress, fine serifs, and clean finishing suggests an intention to balance classic serif conventions with a crisp, display-ready presence.
The design’s thin strokes and sharp terminals create a bright, high-definition look that rewards generous sizing and careful spacing. Round forms and diagonal strokes (notably in letters like S, V, W, and Y) maintain a consistent contrast logic, reinforcing a cohesive, intentional rhythm across the set.
