A sharply contrasted serif with commanding thick–thin transitions and delicate hairline serifs. The letterforms show strong vertical stress and a clean, upright posture, with crisp, lightly bracketed (often near-unbracketed) serifs and pointed, tapered terminals. Curves are sculpted and energetic, producing a lively rhythm; counters are generous and the overall proportion feels elegant rather than geometric. Numerals and capitals read as display-forward, with thin horizontal elements and tall, polished silhouettes that emphasize contrast.
Best suited to display typography: magazine mastheads, editorial headlines, fashion and beauty collateral, premium packaging, and brand wordmarks. It can work for short pulls, subheads, and striking title pages where its fine details and high contrast have room to breathe.
The tone is upscale and editorial, evoking fashion publishing, luxury branding, and high-end cultural institutions. Its dramatic contrast and razor-fine details create a sense of sophistication and ceremony, while the slightly animated curves add a contemporary, stylish edge.
The design intention appears to be a modern, high-contrast serif optimized for visual impact and elegance, prioritizing sharp hairlines, vertical emphasis, and refined detailing to deliver a distinctly editorial, luxury-forward voice.
At larger sizes the hairlines and sharp terminals become a defining feature, giving headlines a glossy, high-impact look. In longer settings, the tight hairlines and pronounced contrast can make the texture feel sparkling and delicate, especially in dense paragraphs or on low-resolution output.
