A high-contrast serif with thick vertical stems and razor-thin hairlines, paired with crisp, triangular serifs that read as sharp and largely unbracketed. The letterforms feel sculpted and slightly flared at stroke endings, with pronounced stroke modulation that emphasizes verticality and creates a strong black–white rhythm. Counters are relatively compact and the overall construction is clean and upright, with a display-forward presence that stays controlled rather than calligraphic.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine mastheads, fashion or luxury branding, posters, and high-impact headlines where the strong contrast can be appreciated. It will also work well for short subheads, pull quotes, and packaging elements that benefit from a refined but commanding serif presence.
The tone is elegant and assertive, projecting a polished editorial sensibility with a touch of theatrical drama. Its crisp hairlines and sharp serifs create a refined, high-fashion mood that feels premium and formal.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-contrast serif voice with sculpted flared endings and crisp hairline detailing, optimized for impactful display settings. It prioritizes elegance and visual drama while maintaining an upright, composed structure.
The font’s impact comes from the tension between heavy main strokes and extremely delicate connecting strokes, producing strong sparkle at larger sizes. The numerals mirror the same contrast and sharp finishing, supporting a cohesive, headline-oriented typographic voice.
