A high-contrast serif with crisp, bracketless hairline serifs and strong vertical stress. The overall color is clean and glossy, with thick stems paired to extremely fine cross-strokes and joins that create a sharp, sculpted rhythm. Curves are tightly controlled and often finish in small ball terminals or tapered points, while counters stay open and well-shaped for display sizes. Proportions run on the broader side, giving capitals and lining figures a stable, stately footprint and keeping lines of text from feeling cramped.
Best suited to headlines, deck type, pull quotes, and large-format typography where the hairlines and sharp serifs can render cleanly. It’s a strong fit for magazine mastheads, beauty and fashion branding, premium packaging, and elegant event materials; for long passages, it will typically perform better at comfortable sizes with ample spacing.
The typeface reads as polished and luxurious, with a distinctly editorial tone. Its dramatic contrast and precise detailing evoke runway, magazine, and premium packaging aesthetics, balancing authority with a refined sense of style.
The design intention appears to be a contemporary, display-leaning text serif that channels classic high-contrast models while keeping letterforms crisp and modern. It aims to deliver prestige and clarity through strong vertical structure, finely cut serifs, and carefully controlled curves.
The italic is not shown; the sample focuses on roman forms where the contrast and vertical emphasis dominate. The rounded letters (like O/C/e) show a consistent stress pattern, and the numerals carry the same high-contrast, display-forward modeling as the uppercase.
