This serif typeface features sharp, hairline serifs and strong thick–thin modulation, producing a crisp, high-contrast silhouette. Stems are predominantly vertical with a clean, upright posture, and curves transition into very fine hairlines at joins and terminals. Proportions run on the condensed side with relatively tall capitals and compact counters, while the lowercase shows a moderate x-height and long, refined ascenders/descenders. Details such as the thin crossbars, tapered joins, and delicate punctuation create a precise, polished rhythm in text and display sizes.
Well-suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and magazine layouts where high contrast and refined detailing can shine. It also works effectively for fashion branding, event materials, and poster typography when set with enough size and breathing room to preserve its hairline features.
The overall tone is elegant and theatrical, with a luxe, editorial feel reminiscent of high-end fashion and classic publishing. Its pronounced contrast and slender finishing strokes add a sense of sophistication and formality, lending titles and statements a confident, premium voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif model, prioritizing elegance, verticality, and sharp finishing over ruggedness. It aims to create a premium typographic color that feels authoritative in display and editorial contexts.
At smaller sizes the finest strokes and interior hairlines may visually lighten, so careful sizing and spacing can help maintain clarity. Numerals and caps share the same high-contrast logic, giving headlines a consistent, poised texture across letters and figures.
