This serif typeface is built around a pronounced thick–thin rhythm with crisp, needle-like hairlines and strong vertical strokes. Serifs are fine and sharp with minimal bracketing, giving terminals a clean, cut appearance. Proportions feel classical and measured: capitals are tall and stately, lowercase forms are relatively compact with a moderate x-height, and round letters show a clear vertical-stress modulation. Curves transition into stems with tight, controlled joins, while spacing and sidebearings create an even, polished text color in the sample setting.
Best suited for large sizes where the hairlines and sharp serifs can be appreciated—magazine headlines, fashion and beauty branding, editorial pull quotes, and upscale poster work. In running text, it will favor generous sizes and comfortable spacing to preserve clarity of the finest strokes.
The overall tone is poised and high-end, with a dramatic contrast that reads as fashionable and editorial. It conveys a sense of precision and formality, leaning toward modern luxury rather than rustic or casual expression.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary high-contrast serif voice: polished, authoritative, and visually striking. Its controlled geometry and refined detailing suggest a focus on premium editorial typography and brand-led display settings.
Distinctive details include a single-storey lowercase “g” with a prominent ear, a crisp, delicate “t” crossbar, and narrow, finely tapered diagonals in letters like “v/w/x/y.” Numerals match the same high-contrast logic, producing an elegant, display-forward rhythm when set large.
