This typeface is a delicate, high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a predominantly vertical stress. Serifs are fine and sharply bracketed to unbracketed in feel, giving terminals a crisp, hairline finish and a slightly shimmering texture in text. Capitals are tall and poised with generous internal whitespace, while the lowercase maintains a measured rhythm with narrow joins, tapered strokes, and compact, carefully controlled curves. Overall spacing appears open and orderly, supporting clear word shapes while preserving a distinctly refined, display-leaning character.
Well suited to magazine and editorial typography, book and journal covers, and brand systems that need a premium, classical voice. It performs especially well for headlines, pull quotes, and titling where the fine serifs and contrast can be appreciated; in longer text it will favor comfortable sizes and good printing or screen rendering conditions.
The tone is polished and elevated, with a fashion/editorial sensibility and a quietly classical demeanor. Its sharp contrast and slender detailing convey sophistication and restraint, lending a sense of ceremony and premium craft without feeling ornamental or calligraphic.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern-classic serif voice with fashion-level refinement: strong vertical structure, sharp hairline details, and a measured text rhythm that bridges display elegance with conventional reading forms.
Round letters show smooth, near-elliptical bowls with thin entry/exit strokes, and diagonal forms (V, W, X) feel crisp and architectural due to the contrast and tapered ends. Numerals share the same refined modulation, reading as elegant and consistent with the letterforms rather than utilitarian.
