A crisp serif with pronounced stroke modulation and predominantly vertical stress, pairing weighty main stems with very fine hairlines. Serifs are delicate and sharply finished, lending a clean, precise edge to the forms. Capitals are tall and stately with generous internal spaces, while the lowercase shows a traditional bookish structure with a two-storey a and g, narrow joins, and neatly tapered terminals. Figures appear lining and proportional, matching the letterforms’ contrast and giving text a polished, high-end rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, magazine spreads, and large-format typography where the thin strokes won’t be lost. It works well for brand identities in fashion, beauty, hospitality, and cultural institutions, as well as for invitations and premium packaging. For longer passages, it will be most comfortable at larger text sizes and in high-quality print or high-resolution screens.
This typeface conveys a refined, editorial tone with a sense of poise and ceremony. The sharp hairlines and sculpted curves give it a fashion-forward, gallery-like elegance, while the overall restraint keeps it feeling classic rather than playful.
The design appears aimed at delivering a premium, high-contrast serif voice for large-scale typography where fine details can be appreciated. Its careful balance of sharp hairlines, stable verticals, and controlled proportions suggests an intention to feel both contemporary and rooted in traditional serif conventions.
The punctuation and numerals maintain the same refined contrast and sharp finishing, reinforcing a cohesive, upscale texture. The sample text shows a smooth, flowing rhythm with pronounced thick–thin transitions that create a lively sparkle across lines.
