A high-contrast serif with sharp hairlines and weighty vertical stems, producing a clear Didone-leaning rhythm. Serifs are fine and tapered, with crisp terminals and smooth, sculpted curves in bowls and rounds. Uppercase proportions feel stately and slightly narrow, while the lowercase shows compact, controlled forms with a modest x-height and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Numerals match the overall drama, with strong vertical stress and thin connecting strokes that keep the texture bright and airy at larger sizes.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, cover lines, pull quotes, and brand wordmarks where contrast and detail can be appreciated. It can also work for short-form editorial text or formal collateral like invitations, especially when set with comfortable spacing and printed or rendered at high quality.
The overall tone is polished and formal, with a fashion/editorial sharpness that reads as premium and composed. Its dramatic contrast and fine details convey sophistication and ceremony rather than warmth or casualness.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, editorial take on classic high-contrast serif forms—prioritizing elegance, crispness, and visual authority with a clean, modern finish.
In text settings the font creates a lively sparkle from its hairlines, while the heavy verticals anchor lines strongly. The design favors clarity of silhouette and a crisp page color, with delicate connections and terminals that will feel most at home when given enough size and resolution to show the fine details.
