A sharply cut modern serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, tapered hairlines. Serifs are fine and neatly bracketed to unbracketed in feel, reading as precise terminals rather than heavy feet, while vertical strokes dominate the rhythm. Capitals are tall and stately with generous spacing and clean, high-contrast curves; the C, G, and S show smooth, controlled bowls. Lowercase is compact and orderly, with a two-storey g, a pointed, delicate t, and a relatively narrow r; the overall texture remains airy due to the thin connecting strokes and fine serifs. Numerals follow the same high-fashion logic, with slender joins and sharp terminals that keep figures elegant at display sizes.
Well-suited for editorial typography—magazine covers, section openers, and pull quotes—where high contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It also fits luxury branding systems (beauty, jewelry, couture) and premium packaging, and can deliver striking poster headlines when given ample size and whitespace.
The tone is polished and high-end, with a runway/editorial sensibility and a slightly dramatic, calligraphic edge created by the extreme contrast. It feels poised and formal rather than friendly, projecting sophistication and restraint.
The design appears aimed at contemporary elegance: a modern serif built to communicate prestige through extreme contrast, crisp finishing, and tall, composed proportions. Its letterforms prioritize style and visual drama for titles and high-end identity work.
At larger sizes the hairlines read as intentionally razor-thin, giving headlines a luminous, etched quality; in dense settings the contrast and delicate joins suggest it will look best with comfortable leading and not-too-tight tracking. The italic is not shown here, and the samples presented emphasize display-oriented impact.
