A delicate serif with pronounced stroke contrast and hairline terminals. Curves are smooth and tightly controlled, while verticals feel dominant, giving the letterforms a poised, upright stance. Serifs are fine and sharp rather than bracketed, and joins stay clean with minimal swelling, producing a crisp, high-fashion rhythm. Proportions are relatively narrow with generous counters, and the overall color on the page is light and open.
Best suited for display and large-size typography such as magazine headlines, fashion branding, elegant packaging, and invitations. It can also work for pull quotes and short editorial passages where a light, high-contrast texture is desirable and size/printing conditions preserve the hairlines.
The font conveys a polished, luxury-leaning tone—cool, precise, and composed. Its thin hairlines and high contrast suggest sophistication and restraint, with a distinctly editorial and gallery-like quietness rather than warmth or rusticity.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-end interpretation of classic serif letterforms—prioritizing sharp contrast, clean geometry, and a refined silhouette for sophisticated typographic settings.
At text sizes the fine horizontals and thin details read as intentionally understated, emphasizing whitespace and a refined cadence. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, matching the restrained, formal character of the capitals and the elegant, calligraphic touches in the lowercase.
