A delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline horizontals and sharply tapered serifs paired to fuller vertical stems. The drawing feels precise and slightly calligraphic in how terminals flick and curve, with smooth, rounded bowls and clean joins. Uppercase forms are stately and spacious, while the lowercase maintains a measured rhythm with modest x-height, slim apertures, and subtly varied stroke endings. Numerals and punctuation follow the same refined contrast, giving the set a crisp, print-oriented texture at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and other editorial display contexts where its contrast and fine hairlines can stay intact. It can also work well for luxury branding, packaging, and formal invitations when printed at sufficient size and with good reproduction.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, evoking fashion mastheads and literary editorial typography. Its sharp contrast and fine finishing details read as formal and cultivated, with a quiet sense of drama rather than warmth or casualness.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern-classic serif voice: elegant, sharply finished, and optimized for sophisticated display typography. Its forms prioritize refinement and contrast to create a premium, high-fashion editorial presence.
The strongest visual signature is the combination of razor-thin hairlines with confident verticals and neatly cut serifs, which creates a shimmering rhythm in text. The spacing in the samples looks intentionally open, contributing to an airy, upscale impression.
