A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and hairline horizontals, giving strokes a crisp, engraved feel. Serifs are fine and sharp with subtle bracketing, and terminals often taper to pointed, pen-like finishes. The capitals are tall and restrained with ample interior space, while the lowercase maintains a calm rhythm with slender stems and open, rounded bowls. Curves are smooth and controlled, and the numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with elegant, lightly built forms.
Best suited for headlines, deck copy, pull quotes, and short editorial passages where its fine details can be appreciated. It fits fashion, luxury branding, arts and culture magazines, and high-end packaging, and can also work for invitations or logotypes when set with generous spacing.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, leaning toward fashion and cultural publishing aesthetics. Its thin structure and polished contrast suggest sophistication and restraint rather than warmth or informality, producing a quiet, premium voice suited to curated settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography: minimal mass, sharp detailing, and controlled proportions that create an upscale editorial texture. It aims to balance refinement with readability for prominent, image-forward layouts.
In the text sample, spacing and letterfit read intentionally airy, reinforcing a light, spacious texture. The design shows a consistent contrast model across roman letters and figures, with standout, sculptural forms in characters like Q, R, and g that add personality without breaking the formal system.
