A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and fine, hairline serifs. Forms show a largely vertical stress with smooth, bracketed transitions into the serifs, giving curves a polished, calligraphic sheen. Uppercase proportions feel stately and measured, while the lowercase keeps a traditional book face rhythm with compact, well-contained counters and clear, tapered terminals. Numerals follow the same sharp contrast and delicate finishing, reading as formal and display-leaning at larger sizes.
This font suits editorial typography, magazine headlines, and book or chapter titling where high contrast can add drama and refinement. It also works well for luxury or fashion-oriented branding and formal materials such as invitations and programs, especially at display sizes where the hairline details remain intact.
The overall tone is poised and classical, projecting sophistication and a quiet sense of prestige. Its crisp hairlines and sculpted curves evoke editorial and fashion contexts, balancing authority with a light, graceful touch.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classical text serif: disciplined proportions, traditional construction, and an elevated contrast profile for an upscale, editorial finish.
Round letters (like C, O, Q) emphasize smooth, continuous curves and a clean vertical axis, while diagonals (V, W, X) appear sharp and carefully tapered. In text, the thin strokes and fine serifs create a bright, airy texture that feels most comfortable when given generous size or printing conditions that preserve detail.
