A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp hairline serifs. The design favors wide capitals and generous horizontal spacing, with sharp terminals, pointed joins, and occasional teardrop/ball details in places like the lower-case g and j. Curves are smooth and taut, while vertical stems read strong and steady, creating a clean, polished rhythm in both uppercase and lowercase. Numerals follow the same dramatic contrast and show stylized curves and terminals that feel intentionally display-oriented.
Best suited to headlines, magazine and book display typography, pull quotes, and brand marks where contrast and refinement are assets. It can work for short blocks of text at comfortable sizes, but its thin hairlines and sharp details suggest stronger performance in display and editorial settings than in dense, small-size copy.
The overall tone is luxurious and composed, projecting a fashion-editorial polish with a distinctly classical, high-society sensibility. Its sharp contrast and refined detailing give it a confident, premium voice that feels ceremonial rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography, balancing tradition with a clean, modern finish. It prioritizes sophistication, strong vertical presence, and striking contrast for high-impact editorial and branding applications.
At larger sizes the hairlines and delicate serifs become a defining feature, emphasizing the font’s precision and sparkle. The lowercase maintains a traditional structure, while select glyphs introduce small, expressive gestures (ball terminals and hooked strokes) that add personality without breaking the formal character.
