A razor-thin modern serif with extreme stroke contrast: sturdy vertical stems paired with filament hairlines and sharp, unbracketed serifs. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled with clear vertical stress, and the overall color is airy due to the fine horizontals and delicate joining strokes. Proportions feel streamlined and tall, with small counters in letters like a, e, and s and a refined, minimal terminal treatment throughout. Numerals echo the same contrast, featuring elegant loops and thin connecting strokes that read best at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, fashion lookbooks, luxury packaging, and brand marks where its fine hairlines can be preserved. It can work for short text passages in large sizes, but the delicate horizontals suggest avoiding small sizes or low-contrast printing conditions.
The font conveys a polished, high-end tone with a distinctly contemporary, editorial sheen. Its precision and delicacy suggest sophistication and restraint, leaning toward fashion and luxury aesthetics rather than casual or utilitarian moods.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, couture-inflected serif voice with dramatic contrast and a clean, architectural silhouette. The emphasis appears to be on elegance and impact in headlines and branded statements rather than robust, all-purpose text setting.
The italic is not shown; the displayed roman maintains a consistent vertical rhythm with carefully aligned hairlines and crisp serifs. In the sample text, long runs create a shimmering texture where hairlines become prominent, reinforcing its display-first character.
