A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and very fine hairlines, creating a light, airy color on the page. Serifs are crisp and tapered, with a generally vertical stress and smooth, controlled curves. Proportions feel moderately narrow with generous sidebearings, giving the text an open rhythm, while capitals are tall and poised with minimal stroke weight in horizontals. Lowercase forms are clean and restrained, with fine joins and small counters that remain readable at display sizes.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, magazine headlines, book covers, and high-end branding where a refined, high-contrast serif is desired. It also works effectively for posters and pull quotes, especially when set with ample leading to showcase its hairline details.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, evoking contemporary fashion and classic book typography at the same time. Its lightness and sharp contrast convey sophistication and restraint, with a calm, composed voice rather than a warm or rustic one.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of a classic serif: maximizing elegance through contrast, sharp serifs, and a spacious rhythm. Its construction prioritizes visual refinement and typographic sophistication in display and editorial contexts.
The numerals and punctuation share the same hairline delicacy, and the sample text shows a consistent rhythm across mixed case, with noticeable sparkle from the thin strokes. The design reads best where its contrast can be preserved, as the finest details are visually prominent in larger settings.
