A high-contrast serif with crisp hairlines and strong vertical stems, set in generous widths and with careful, polished proportions. Serifs are fine and sharply articulated, with subtle bracketing that keeps joins clean rather than slab-like. Round letters show a clear vertical stress and smooth, controlled curves, while diagonals (V, W, Y, X) taper to knife-like terminals. Lowercase forms keep a moderate x-height with airy counters; details such as the two-storey a, the open-eared g, and the tall, delicate f and t contribute to a distinctly bookish, formal rhythm. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, with prominent curves and thin connecting strokes.
Well-suited to editorial design, magazine typography, book covers, and sophisticated headlines where contrast and elegance are desired. It can also support premium brand identity work—particularly in beauty, culture, or luxury contexts—when set at sizes that preserve the thin strokes.
The overall tone is poised and cultivated, balancing classical serif tradition with a contemporary, high-fashion sharpness. It reads as premium and literary, with enough sparkle in the hairlines and terminals to feel luxurious rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, conventional serif voice with heightened contrast and generous proportions, emphasizing elegance, clarity in large sizes, and a refined typographic presence.
In text, the strong thick–thin modulation creates a bright page color and a pronounced vertical cadence. The spacing appears comfortably open at display and large text sizes, while the finest hairlines and delicate joins suggest best use where reproduction is clean and sizes are not too small.
