A refined serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and pronounced vertical stress. The design uses crisp, hairline serifs with minimal bracketing and sharp terminals that stay clean at display sizes. Curves are smooth and sculpted, with a narrow waist in some forms and strong, steady vertical stems that set up a bright, high-end rhythm. Lowercase shows a traditional build with a moderate x-height, compact apertures, and neatly finished ascenders/descenders; figures follow the same high-contrast logic with elegant, flowing shapes.
Best suited to display and larger text where its delicate hairlines and contrast can remain clear: magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, invitations, and high-end editorial layouts. It can also work for pull quotes and short paragraphs when given adequate size and spacing.
The overall tone is polished and luxurious, leaning toward classic publishing and fashion aesthetics. Its sharp hairlines and poised proportions feel formal and composed, with a slightly theatrical contrast that brings a sense of prestige.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern take on classic high-contrast serif typography, prioritizing elegance, sharp detailing, and a sophisticated page color for editorial and brand-led applications.
In text settings the hairlines create a lively sparkle and a distinctly refined texture, while larger sizes emphasize the sculptural curves and the crisp serif detailing. The uppercase reads authoritative and ceremonial; the lowercase maintains a literary, bookish cadence while still feeling contemporary in its precision.
