A high-contrast serif with vertical stress, crisp hairline serifs, and strong thick–thin modulation throughout. The forms are broadly proportioned with generous counters and a steady, upright stance. Serifs are fine and clean, with minimal bracketing and sharp, pointed terminals where strokes taper. Curves are tightly controlled and slightly sculpted, giving round letters and figures a polished, drawn quality rather than a purely mechanical one.
This font is strongest in display contexts such as magazine headlines, fashion and lifestyle branding, premium packaging, and large-format posters where its hairline details and dramatic contrast can be appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes or subheads when set with comfortable spacing and adequate size to preserve the fine strokes.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, combining elegance with a confident, attention-grabbing rhythm. It reads as premium and editorial, suited to settings where contrast and sharp detailing signal sophistication.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-end serif voice: classic letterforms refined with extreme contrast, sharp finishing, and wide proportions that create a bold editorial presence.
Uppercase letters show pronounced weight contrast and tall, stately proportions, while the lowercase keeps a clear, traditional structure with lively modulation in bowls and joins. Numerals match the display-like contrast and include distinctive curved strokes that add flair in larger sizes.
