A high-contrast serif with prominent vertical stems and extremely fine hairline serifs and cross-strokes. The design emphasizes tall, elegant capitals and a crisp, chiseled rhythm, with sharp wedge-like terminals appearing in several letters and very thin joins in places such as E/F crossbars and the diagonals of N/V/W. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, with noticeable thick–thin modulation and a distinctly vertical feel in rounded forms. Lowercase shows a compact, slightly classical structure with small apertures and delicate finishing strokes, while numerals echo the same bold-and-hairline construction for strong headline presence.
Best suited to large-scale typography such as magazine headlines, fashion and beauty layouts, premium branding, and poster titling where contrast and detail can be appreciated. It can also work for short display lines in packaging or invitations, but is less appropriate for dense body copy where hairlines may fade.
The tone is polished and dramatic, with an unmistakably editorial, fashion-forward character. Its razor-thin details and strong contrast signal sophistication and exclusivity, while the tight spacing and crisp silhouettes add a modern, high-impact edge.
The design appears intended as a statement display serif: maximizing contrast, vertical elegance, and crisp finishing to create a luxe, contemporary take on classic modern serifs. Its letterforms prioritize visual drama and refinement over utilitarian robustness.
Hairlines become extremely light at small sizes, so the look depends on sufficient size and good reproduction. The sample text suggests the face excels when allowed generous scale, where the thin strokes, sharp serifs, and contrast can read cleanly and intentionally.
