A crisp, high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and fuller verticals that subtly swell toward the ends, creating a flared, calligraphic finish rather than blunt slabs. The serifs read as fine and knife-like, with smooth transitions into stems and a polished, controlled stress that feels slightly diagonal in the round letters. Capitals are stately and open, while the lowercase keeps a moderate x-height with compact joins and narrow apertures; the overall rhythm is clean and measured. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with elegant curves and thin entry strokes that keep the texture light despite the strong thick–thin modulation.
Best suited to display and editorial settings where its contrast and fine terminals can be appreciated—magazine headlines, pull quotes, luxury branding, and premium packaging. It can also work for short text passages in print or high-resolution environments where the thin strokes remain clear.
The tone is poised and upscale, with an editorial sophistication that recalls magazine typography and luxury branding. Its sharp hairlines and flared endings add a hint of drama and couture refinement without becoming ornamental or overly historical.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary luxury serif: traditional proportions and readability cues paired with pronounced contrast and subtly flared stroke endings to create a distinctive, high-fashion voice for titles and brand expressions.
In text, the delicate hairlines and tight interior spaces can create a sparkling, high-end texture, especially at larger sizes. The distinctive flare at stroke endings gives letters a gently sculpted silhouette, helping headlines feel tailored and intentional.
