A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and assertive, rounded main strokes. Serifs are fine and crisp with a subtly bracketed feel, giving terminals a clean, polished finish rather than a blunt slab impression. Counters are compact and neatly controlled, while overall proportions lean wide, producing generous horizontal presence in caps and numerals. The rhythm is formal and steady, with smooth curves, tight joins, and a consistent modulation that reads especially striking at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and display typography where contrast and fine detailing can be appreciated. It works well for magazine and editorial layouts, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and refined identity systems that benefit from a polished serif voice.
The tone is poised and upscale, with a distinctly editorial, fashion-forward attitude. Its dramatic contrast and sculpted curves convey elegance and authority, balancing classic bookish tradition with a modern, high-gloss finish.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-end serif voice built around dramatic contrast and wide, confident proportions. It prioritizes elegance and impact for display-led typography while retaining a conventional serif structure for familiar readability in short passages.
In text, the strong thick–thin modulation creates pronounced sparkle and line texture; hairlines and delicate details become a defining feature, particularly in punctuation and small joins. Numerals and capitals feel headline-ready, with a confident, slightly stately presence.
