A delicate modern serif with extreme stroke modulation: robust vertical stems paired with filament-thin hairlines and serifs. The serifs are sharp and minimally bracketed, often reading as fine horizontal or wedge-like terminals that give a crisp, polished edge. Curves show a clear vertical stress and smooth, controlled transitions, producing a taut, high-fashion rhythm in text. Proportions are classical and slightly narrow-to-moderate, with a relatively small x-height and long ascenders/descenders that add openness and elegance.
Best suited for display and editorial roles such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and sophisticated poster work. It can work for short text blocks or pull quotes where its airy contrast is part of the aesthetic, but it will be most effective when given enough size and breathing room to preserve its fine details.
The overall tone is luxurious and poised, with a cool, editorial sophistication. Its strong contrast and razor-thin detailing create a sense of drama and exclusivity, reminiscent of high-end magazines and runway branding. In longer passages it feels airy and refined, with a distinctly modern, cosmopolitan character.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography, prioritizing elegance, sharp detail, and a glamorous editorial voice. Its controlled vertical stress and minimal serif bracketing suggest a focus on crisp reproduction and a polished, modern-luxury look.
Uppercase forms read stately and sculptural—especially the round letters and diagonals—while the lowercase keeps the same high-contrast logic with slender joins and fine terminals. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with light hairline features that visually match the letterforms in display settings. The design’s thin horizontals and terminals are visually prominent features, so spacing and size have a noticeable impact on perceived sharpness and texture.
