A sharply drawn serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and crisp, knife-like finishing. Serifs are fine and tapered, often reading as hairline terminals that contrast strongly with the fuller stems, giving the letterforms a sculpted, high-fashion silhouette. Curves are smooth and controlled, with compact bowls and pronounced stress that emphasizes verticality; joins and beaks stay clean rather than bracketed. The rhythm is airy and formal, and the numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with delicate diagonals and pointed terminals.
Best suited to headlines, decks, pull quotes, and magazine-style layouts where the high-contrast detailing can read cleanly. It also works well for luxury branding, packaging, and display typography that aims for a premium, classical voice. For longer passages, it will perform most confidently when set with comfortable size and spacing to preserve the fine hairlines.
The tone is luxurious and poised, with the kind of deliberate contrast and restraint associated with editorial typography. It feels formal and premium, projecting sophistication rather than warmth, and carries a slightly theatrical, headline-forward elegance.
The design intention appears focused on a contemporary, editorial serif with dramatic contrast and razor-fine finishing, aiming to deliver elegance and impact in display-led typography while retaining conventional serif proportions.
Uppercase forms show strong presence and a statuesque stance, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation through sharply cut terminals and tight apertures. In the text sample, the sparkle from hairline details is prominent, especially in diagonals and cross strokes, producing a crisp, high-end texture that benefits from generous sizes and careful spacing.
