This typeface is a delicate modern serif with sharp, hairline terminals and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The construction is upright and controlled, with crisp bracketed serifs that often resolve into fine points, giving strokes a clean, cut look. Uppercase forms are stately and spacious, while lowercase shows a traditional, bookish structure with a single-storey g, an open e, and fine, tapered joins. Curves are smooth and round, counters are generous, and spacing reads even, producing a calm, polished rhythm in text despite the dramatic contrast.
It suits magazine layouts, editorial typography, and display settings where elegance and contrast are key—such as headlines, pull quotes, and book or film titles. It can also work for luxury brand identities and packaging when used at sizes that preserve its fine details.
The overall tone is poised and luxurious, balancing classical book typography with a contemporary, fashion-forward sheen. Its thin finishing strokes and sharp details convey precision and sophistication, making it feel premium and curated rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion serif voice with classical proportions and meticulous finishing. By pairing generous, readable shapes with razor-fine terminals and strong modulation, it aims to create a refined, premium typographic texture for editorial and branding contexts.
In the sample text, the hairline features remain prominent and the letterforms keep a consistent vertical emphasis, yielding a bright, high-contrast texture. Numerals share the same refined contrast and narrow finishing strokes, with an elegant 2 and a sharply hooked 9 that reinforce the stylish, editorial character.
