A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline serifs. The overall construction is upright and relatively vertical, with smooth, taut curves and a clean, polished edge quality. Uppercase forms feel stately and structured, while the lowercase shows compact, neatly drawn bowls and clear counters; terminals tend toward fine, tapered finishes rather than blunt endings. Figures are lining in feel with strong contrast and sharp joins, matching the text’s formal rhythm.
It suits headlines, pull quotes, and editorial typography where a sophisticated, high-contrast voice is desired. It should also work well for book covers, premium packaging, and brand wordmarks that benefit from sharp, refined serif detailing.
The font conveys a refined, fashion-forward seriousness with a measured, literary tone. Its sharp contrast and delicate details create a sense of luxury and ceremony, leaning more toward elegant display typography than casual reading warmth.
The design intention appears to be a contemporary interpretation of a classical high-contrast text-and-display serif, aiming for elegance, authority, and visual drama through hairline serifs and a strongly vertical rhythm.
Spacing appears controlled and even in the sample text, producing a consistent light–dark texture with distinct vertical emphasis. The italics are not shown; all samples present a single upright style. The delicate hairlines suggest the design will reward larger sizes and high-quality reproduction where fine details can remain intact.
