A high-contrast serif with sharp, hairline terminals and strong thick–thin transitions throughout. The letterforms are upright and formal, with smooth, tensioned curves in rounds (O, C, Q) and decisive vertical stems that create a crisp black-and-white rhythm. Serifs are fine and pointed, with minimal bracketing, and many joins resolve into slender hairlines that heighten the delicate, chiseled feel. Proportions read as traditionally text-oriented with a moderate x-height and relatively narrow internal apertures, while capitals present a poised, stately presence.
Well-suited to editorial design, display typography, and titling where the fine serifs and pronounced contrast can be appreciated. It works especially well for magazine headings, book covers, cultural posters, and premium branding systems that want a classic, refined voice.
The overall tone is polished and editorial, projecting luxury and authority through its dramatic contrast and precise finishing. It feels at home in fashion and cultural contexts where refinement and a touch of theatricality are desirable, reading as classic rather than quirky or experimental.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of conventional serif typography: clean, upright forms with heightened contrast and meticulous terminals that add sophistication and impact. It prioritizes elegance and hierarchy, aiming to make text feel curated and elevated.
At larger sizes the hairline details and sharp terminals become a defining feature, giving headlines a sleek, high-end sparkle. In longer passages, the strong contrast and fine strokes produce a distinctive, stylish texture that emphasizes hierarchy and emphasis through formality.
