A high-contrast serif with sharp hairlines and weighty verticals, showing pronounced modulation and crisp joins. The serifs read as tapered and subtly flared with bracketed transitions rather than blunt slabs, giving strokes a slightly carved, expanding finish. Proportions lean tall and elegant, with compact, controlled apertures and a steady baseline rhythm; curves in C/G/O/Q are smooth and taut, while diagonals (V/W/X) remain clean and knife-edged. Numerals mirror the same contrast and delicacy, with thin crossbars and refined terminals that suit display sizing.
Best used for headlines, subheads, and other display roles where its contrast and refined terminals can be appreciated. It’s well suited to magazine typography, luxury branding, poster titling, and book cover work, and can also function for short-form editorial text when set with adequate size and spacing.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, with a couture/editorial feel that reads confident and a bit theatrical. Its sharp contrast and flared finishing details give it a poised, authoritative voice suited to premium branding and sophisticated layouts.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, contemporary take on classic serif construction by pairing traditional proportions with distinctly tapered, flared stroke endings and crisp hairlines. The goal reads as premium presence and strong typographic contrast for impactful display composition.
In text, the hairlines and tight interior spaces emphasize a luminous, sparkling texture, especially around letters like e/s/a and in punctuation. The design favors clarity through structure and contrast rather than warmth, so it benefits from generous size or comfortable printing conditions where fine strokes can hold.
