A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, hairline finishing strokes. Serifs are refined and lightly bracketed, with several ball terminals and tapered joins that create a polished, display-forward texture. Capitals are stately and relatively wide with clean, vertical stems and elegant curves, while lowercase forms show a more dynamic rhythm with slightly calligraphic detailing and varied internal spaces. Numerals follow the same contrast model, mixing sturdy main strokes with delicate hairlines for a crisp, engraved look at larger sizes.
This style excels in headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other editorial display roles where contrast and refinement are assets. It is also well suited to luxury branding systems, beauty and fashion materials, posters, and premium packaging where a sophisticated serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is sophisticated and theatrical, with a couture/editorial feel that reads as premium and carefully crafted. Its sharp contrast and fine details give it a confident, high-end voice suited to attention-grabbing typography rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif voice that signals elegance and prestige. It prioritizes sharp detail, sculpted curves, and a dramatic typographic color to create standout display typography with a classic foundation.
In text settings the stroke contrast produces a sparkling surface and strong word shapes, but the finest hairlines and delicate serifs suggest best performance at larger sizes or in high-resolution output. The design balances classical proportions with modern crispness, creating a formal but contemporary impression.
