A refined serif with extremely thin hairlines paired with strong vertical stems, creating a crisp, high-tension rhythm. Serifs are sharp and finely bracketed to flared, with many terminals tapering to needle-like points. The overall drawing is clean and controlled, with relatively straight-sided forms, narrow apertures in places, and a polished, print-like finish that emphasizes contrast and verticality.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, fashion and beauty communication, and other display-led settings where high contrast and fine details can be appreciated. It can also support branding and packaging when used at generous sizes and with comfortable spacing.
The font conveys a poised, luxurious tone associated with premium editorial design. Its sharp hairlines and sculpted serifs add drama and sophistication, reading as formal and carefully composed rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, editorial take on a classic serif model, prioritizing elegance, contrast-driven rhythm, and sharp finishing details for impactful display typography.
In the sample text, the contrast and delicate joins become more pronounced at larger sizes, where the hairlines and pointed terminals read as intentional detailing. Numerals appear display-leaning with bold vertical emphasis and fine finishing strokes, matching the overall refined character.
