A refined modern serif with extremely thin hairlines set against sturdy vertical stems, producing a crisp, glossy rhythm. Serifs are sharp and mostly bracketed, with tapered entry/exit strokes and pointed terminals that keep counters open and silhouettes clean. Round letters show clear vertical stress and a controlled, near-circular geometry, while capitals feel tall and statuesque with generous internal space. Lowercase forms are disciplined and readable, with a two-storey a, a compact e with a fine crossbar, and a g that reads as single-storey with a distinctive ear; overall spacing appears even and designed for composed text color at display-to-text sizes.
Well-suited to magazine typography, lookbooks, and other editorial contexts where high contrast can shine. It also fits luxury branding, beauty and fashion packaging, and formal invitations or titling where a refined, premium voice is desired.
The overall tone is elegant and poised, with a distinctly high-fashion, editorial polish. The stark contrast and fine detailing add a sense of drama and sophistication, lending headlines a premium, curated feel.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver a contemporary, elegant serif voice with strong visual contrast and clean, polished details. The consistent vertical stress, crisp terminals, and composed spacing suggest an intention to perform especially well in display settings while remaining orderly in short text passages.
The design relies on delicate hairlines, so it rewards high-quality printing or modern screens, and benefits from thoughtful size and tracking choices to keep the thinnest strokes from disappearing. Numerals match the letterforms’ refinement, with similarly tapered terminals and a balanced, classical stance.
