A polished modern serif with pronounced vertical stress and striking thick–thin modulation. Hairline serifs and terminals contrast against sturdy stems, creating a crisp, razor-edged silhouette. Curves are smooth and carefully tensioned, with relatively narrow joins and delicate connecting strokes in letters like a, g, and e. Proportions feel balanced and text-ready rather than condensed, while the overall rhythm is refined and slightly formal, with clear, stable upright construction.
Best suited to editorial design, magazine typography, and prominent headlines where the contrast and fine details can be appreciated. It also fits luxury brand identities, packaging, and formal collateral such as invitations or certificates, especially in larger sizes or high-quality print and screens.
The tone is luxurious and poised, projecting a fashion and culture-magazine sensibility. Its sharp contrast and clean finish feel premium, confident, and a bit dramatic, suitable for high-end branding and sophisticated editorial voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-contrast serif voice that blends classic model forms with modern sharpness. Its emphasis on hairline detailing and composed proportions suggests a focus on premium, headline-forward typography that can also carry refined short-form text.
The figures show strong contrast and a stylish, display-leaning presence even at text sizes, with thin horizontals that read as intentionally delicate. Uppercase forms look stately and composed, while lowercase introduces subtle calligraphic liveliness through tapered strokes and fine entry/exit details.
