A refined high-contrast serif with strong vertical emphasis, thick main stems, and very fine hairlines. Serifs are sharp and delicate, with minimal bracketing, giving the letters a crisp, cut-paper finish. Proportions run condensed overall, with tall uppercase forms and a relatively modest x-height that keeps lowercase counters tight and rhythmic. Curves are smooth and controlled, terminals tend toward pointed or tapered finishes, and numerals and punctuation match the same glossy contrast and precision.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, mastheads, and pull quotes where its fine details can remain clear. It can also work for high-end brand identities and packaging that benefit from a condensed, high-contrast voice. For longer passages, it will be most comfortable at generous sizes and with careful spacing to preserve the hairline detail.
The font conveys a polished, high-end tone—dramatic without feeling ornamental. Its sharp contrast and slender proportions read as luxurious and editorial, evoking fashion, culture magazines, and classic display typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic high-fashion serif look: condensed proportions, pronounced stroke contrast, and precise, sharp serifs that create a sophisticated headline texture. It prioritizes elegance and impact over neutrality, aiming for a distinctive editorial presence.
In the sample text, the thin horizontals and hairline serifs become a defining feature, creating a sparkling texture at larger sizes while making spacing and line breaks feel structured and formal. The lowercase shows compact bowls and narrow apertures, reinforcing a tight, vertical rhythm.
