A delicate serif with razor-thin hairlines and pronounced thick–thin modulation, producing a crisp, high-fashion silhouette. Serifs are fine and sharp with minimal bracketing, and the overall rhythm is clean and vertical with a strong sense of order. Capitals feel tall and formal, while the lowercase keeps a relatively moderate x-height and narrow counters, giving text a light, sparkling texture. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with slender stems and fine terminals that read as display-oriented at smaller sizes.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, high-end packaging, invitations, and large-format posters where contrast and hairline serifs can shine. It can work for short editorial subheads and pull quotes, but extended body copy will typically require careful sizing and printing conditions to preserve the fine details.
The tone is polished and upscale, evoking luxury editorial typography and gallery-like restraint. Its airy construction and precise detailing feel poised, calm, and distinctly premium rather than casual or utilitarian.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif principles, prioritizing elegance, sharpness, and editorial authority. The forms emphasize sophistication and visual drama through extreme modulation and precise finishing.
The design relies heavily on very fine joins and hairline serifs, so it benefits from generous sizes and high-quality output where those details can remain intact. Round forms show a controlled, vertical stress, and the overall spacing in the sample text supports a measured, refined cadence.
