A delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline horizontals and thin connecting strokes set against more substantial vertical stems. The serifs are sharply cut and finely bracketed, with tapered terminals and a smooth, calligraphic flow through curves. Proportions run on the wider side with generous sidebearings, giving the design an open, airy texture, while stroke modulation stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures. Numerals follow the same refined contrast and include elegant curves and thin cross-strokes that read best when given space.
Best suited for display and editorial typography—magazine headlines, pull quotes, book covers, and refined brand wordmarks—where its contrast and fine detail can be preserved. It can work for short passages at comfortable sizes and with ample leading, but it particularly shines in larger settings and high-quality print or high-resolution screens.
The overall tone is poised and polished, with a distinctly luxe, editorial sensibility. Its crisp detailing and bright negative space convey sophistication and formality, leaning toward fashion, culture, and premium branding aesthetics rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serifs, prioritizing elegance, spaciousness, and a premium feel. It balances traditional serif construction with clean, modern finishing to create a crisp, upscale voice for titles and branding.
In continuous reading the very fine hairlines and sharp joints create a sparkling rhythm, especially in rounded letters and diagonals. The italic is not shown; the displayed style emphasizes upright clarity with graceful, slightly calligraphic shaping in letters like a, g, and e.
