A high-contrast italic serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp hairline connections. The letterforms are generously proportioned with a wide stance and a smooth, forward-leaning rhythm. Serifs are fine and sharply finished, often wedge-like with subtle bracketing, giving terminals a clean, chiseled feel. Counters are open and rounded, and curves show controlled tension, producing a polished, contemporary reading texture at display sizes.
Well-suited to magazine typography, headlines, pull quotes, and luxury branding where a sleek italic voice is needed. It can also work for packaging and short-form marketing copy, especially in larger sizes where the fine hairlines and sharp terminals remain clear.
The overall tone is refined and upscale, with a distinctly editorial and fashion-forward presence. Its sharp hairlines and poised slant create a sense of drama and sophistication rather than warmth or casualness.
Designed to deliver a modern italic serif tailored for sophisticated display use, balancing classic serif structure with a sleek, high-fashion sharpness. The intention appears to emphasize elegance and visual contrast, creating a confident typographic voice for premium, editorial contexts.
Uppercase forms present strong, clean silhouettes with minimal ornament, while the lowercase carries more calligraphic movement in entries, exits, and curved joins. Numerals match the same high-contrast logic, reading as formal and elegant; the set feels best when given generous size and spacing so the hairlines can breathe.
