A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline finishing strokes. Serifs read as sharp, wedge-like terminals rather than heavy brackets, giving the outlines a cut, chiseled quality. Capitals are stately and relatively wide, with strong vertical stress and clean, open counters; curves taper quickly into fine strokes. Lowercase maintains a moderate x-height with compact bowls and decisive, angled joins, producing a lively rhythm that alternates between stout stems and razor-thin connectors.
Best suited to display and editorial settings such as magazine headlines, book covers, luxury branding, and poster typography where its contrast and sharp terminals can shine. It can work for short passages at comfortable sizes, but it is most convincing when given enough scale and spacing to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is refined and authoritative, with a distinctly editorial, fashion-forward polish. Its sharp serifs and dramatic contrast add a sense of ceremony and sophistication, making text feel curated and premium rather than casual.
The design appears aimed at delivering a modern take on a classic, high-contrast serif for upscale communication—maximizing elegance and impact through dramatic modulation, pointed serifs, and a confident, headline-ready presence.
The numerals follow the same dramatic contrast and pointed finishing, looking especially striking at larger sizes. In continuous text the thin strokes can become visually delicate, while headings benefit from the strong silhouette and crisp, engraved-like edges.
