A high-contrast serif with sharp hairlines and weighty vertical stems, producing a crisp black-and-white rhythm. Serifs are finely cut and mostly bracketed, with tapered joins and pointed terminals that keep the texture elegant rather than blunt. The capitals feel stately and slightly expansive, while the lowercase shows compact, sculpted bowls and a two-storey a with a pronounced hairline entry. Numerals are similarly contrasty and formal, with refined curves and narrow joins that read best when given room.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and upscale editorial typography where its contrast and sharp detailing can shine. It also works well for fashion and beauty branding, cultural posters, and premium packaging when used at larger sizes with comfortable spacing.
The overall tone is polished and dramatic, with a couture/editorial sensibility. It conveys luxury and authority, pairing classic bookish heritage with a sharper, more theatrical finish suited to display settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion take on a classic serif—maximizing contrast and crisp detailing for impact while keeping letterforms conventional enough to feel familiar and authoritative.
In dense setting the delicate hairlines and tight internal counters can visually thin out, while the heavy verticals stay prominent, creating a strong stripe-and-hairline pattern. The ampersand is bold and ornamental, reinforcing a headline-oriented personality.
