A high-contrast serif with sharp, hairline terminals and pronounced thick–thin transitions. The letterforms show crisp, tapered serifs and finely cut joins, with smooth, rounded bowls on letters like O and C and tight, pointed interior apertures in forms such as a and e. Proportions skew wide with generous horizontal spread, while strokes remain precise and controlled; the overall rhythm alternates between stout vertical stems and delicate connecting strokes. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, with elegant curves and thin entry/exit strokes that echo the capitals.
Best suited to headlines and larger text where the extreme contrast and hairline details can reproduce cleanly. It fits magazine mastheads, luxury branding, posters, and book-cover typography, and can also work for short editorial subheads or pull quotes when given enough size and leading.
The font reads polished and theatrical, combining a traditional bookish backbone with fashion-forward contrast. Its sharp finishing and broad stance convey confidence and prestige, making it feel well-suited to high-end, editorial settings where typography is meant to be seen.
The design intent appears to be a contemporary, high-contrast serif that balances classic forms with striking display presence. The wide proportions and razor-like finishing suggest it was drawn to deliver elegance and impact in prominent typographic moments.
Spacing appears open at display sizes, letting the hairlines and serif details breathe. The lowercase shows a relatively compact, sturdy structure beneath the fine terminals, helping maintain clarity even with the dramatic contrast.
