A refined serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sharp, hairline terminals. The serifs are small and bracketed, with tapered joins that give strokes a sculpted, calligraphic feel. Round letters show smooth, slightly vertical stress and tight, clean apertures, while diagonals and arms end in pointed, knife-like finishing. Proportions are balanced for text, with a moderate x-height, relatively tall ascenders, and compact, elegant capitals that maintain a consistent rhythm across the alphabet and numerals.
Well suited to editorial layouts, magazine headlines, and refined brand identities where elegance and contrast are desirable. It can also support upscale packaging and event materials, especially when set with generous spacing and strong printing or screen rendering.
The overall tone is poised and high-end, suggesting magazine typography and premium branding. Its crisp contrast and delicate details convey sophistication and formality, with a distinctly editorial, fashion-forward polish.
The letterforms appear intended to translate classic book-serif heritage into a more couture, high-contrast voice, prioritizing crisp elegance and typographic drama while keeping proportions familiar enough for extended editorial use.
The design relies on fine hairlines and precise terminals, so it reads most confident at larger sizes or in high-quality reproduction. The numerals mirror the same contrast and tapering, giving figures a similarly dressy, display-leaning presence when used in headlines or pull quotes.
