A tall, tightly condensed serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and a strongly vertical rhythm. Stems are heavy and straight, while hairlines are extremely fine, giving the letters a crisp, engraved look. Serifs are sharp and delicate, often wedge-like, with minimal bracketing; curves terminate in thin, precise endings. The overall fit is compact with narrow counters and a refined, high-tension texture that stays consistent from capitals through figures.
Best suited to display roles where its compressed width and strong contrast can create impact—headlines, magazine titles, fashion and culture layouts, posters, and upscale branding. It can work for short pull quotes or deck text when set with comfortable spacing, but its fine hairlines suggest avoiding very small sizes or low-contrast reproduction conditions.
The font conveys polish and sophistication with a distinctly dramatic edge. Its razor-thin hairlines and compressed proportions feel fashion-forward and luxe, while the classical serif structure keeps it formal and authoritative.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif: maximizing elegance and intensity through narrow proportions, hairline detailing, and a clean, vertical stance for striking editorial typography.
In text, the dense vertical pattern creates a bold typographic color, with capitals reading especially monumental. The numerals follow the same condensed, high-contrast logic, and the lowercase maintains a restrained, editorial feel rather than a casual or calligraphic one.
