A high-contrast serif with strong vertical emphasis, thick main strokes, and extremely thin hairline cross-strokes and serifs. The serifs are sharp and minimally bracketed, with a clean, chiseled feel at joins and terminals. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, and the overall rhythm reads as crisp and formal, with generous proportions that give capitals and figures a poised, display-forward presence. The lowercase shows a classic, bookish structure with clear counters and a steady x-height, while fine details (like crossbars and spur-like endings) remain delicate and precise.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine titles, large headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and poster work. It can work for short editorial passages at comfortable sizes with adequate leading, where its fine hairlines and strong thick–thin rhythm remain clear.
The tone is polished and high-end, projecting an editorial, fashion-oriented elegance. Its stark contrast and refined detailing create a dramatic, confident voice that feels modern-classic rather than rustic or casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif: sharp, elegant, and visually striking, with an emphasis on sophisticated typography for branding and editorial layouts.
In text, the hairlines stay prominent and add sparkle, especially in diagonals and crossbars, while rounded letters maintain a smooth, vertical-stress flow. Numerals and capitals appear especially assertive and glamorous, supporting headline use where contrast and silhouette can carry the design.
