A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation, crisp hairline serifs, and a predominantly vertical stress. Curves are smooth and sculpted, with tapered joins and sharp terminals that create a polished, dressy texture. Proportions feel balanced and slightly narrow in the capitals, while the lowercase maintains a steady rhythm with compact bowls and clear counters; numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with clean, wedge-like finishing. Overall color is light and sparkling at text sizes due to the fine hairlines, with strong stroke emphasis on verticals.
Well-suited for magazine typography, book and journal headlines, and other editorial applications where a sophisticated, high-contrast serif is desired. It also fits luxury-oriented brand systems, packaging, and formal materials such as invitations and certificates, especially when set at display sizes where the fine details can shine.
The font projects a poised, high-end tone associated with fashion, culture, and traditional publishing. Its sharp contrast and tidy detailing give it a confident, authoritative voice that reads as refined and carefully composed rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, high-fashion serif voice through strong contrast, vertical emphasis, and precise hairline finishing. It prioritizes elegance and visual impact, aiming for a premium editorial presence with a traditional typographic foundation.
The design’s delicacy in the thin strokes makes it visually striking in larger sizes, where the hairlines and serifs stay crisp and the contrast becomes a defining feature. In denser settings, the bright rhythm created by fine horizontals and serifs becomes part of the aesthetic, emphasizing a sophisticated editorial look.
