A crisp modern serif with strong vertical stress, broad main strokes, and extremely fine hairlines. Serifs are sharp and delicate with minimal bracketing, giving the letterforms a clean, chiseled silhouette. Counters are compact and the rhythm is decidedly display-oriented, with pronounced stroke contrast shaping letters like C, S, and G into bold, sculptural forms. Lowercase shows lively details—single-storey a and g with prominent bowls, a narrow, angled ear on g, and energetic joins and terminals that create a slightly calligraphic snap without slanting the overall stance. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, mixing sturdy verticals with thin connecting strokes for a crisp, refined finish.
Best suited for headlines, deck text, pull quotes, and logotypes where high contrast and fine serifs are part of the visual message. It performs especially well in editorial and fashion contexts, premium packaging, and event or poster typography that benefits from a strong black-and-white texture.
The tone is polished and commanding, evoking contemporary editorial styling and runway-grade sophistication. Its dramatic contrast reads as refined and premium, with a touch of theatrical flair that feels suited to statement typography rather than quiet utility.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion take on the classic contrasted serif: bold stems for impact, razor hairlines for elegance, and carefully sharpened terminals to keep the overall impression crisp and contemporary.
The design rewards larger sizes where the hairlines and sharp serifs can stay intact, and the bold stems create strong word shapes in headlines. The spacing appears relatively tight and the forms are dense, producing a compact, high-impact texture in paragraphs set large.
