A high-contrast serif with pronounced vertical stress, crisp thick-to-thin transitions, and very fine hairlines. Serifs are sharp and neatly cut, reading largely unbracketed, with a clean, chiseled finish on many terminals. Proportions feel generous in width with open counters and a steady baseline rhythm, while stroke modulation remains consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals. The overall texture is glossy and bright at display sizes, with delicate horizontals and joining strokes that emphasize refinement.
Best suited for display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, titles, and luxury-leaning branding where the hairlines can be given room to breathe. It can also work for short blocks of text in high-quality print or large-size digital settings, especially when strong contrast and a refined voice are desired.
The font projects a polished, classic tone with a dramatic, fashion-forward edge. Its crisp contrast and disciplined structure suggest formality and confidence, lending a sense of prestige and editorial sophistication.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif, prioritizing elegance and impact through sharp detailing, vertical emphasis, and spacious proportions for confident display composition.
In the sample text, the thin strokes and serifs become notably delicate as size decreases, while the heavier verticals keep word shapes stable and impactful. Numerals appear lining and similarly contrasted, matching the type’s display-oriented clarity and rhythm.
