A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, largely unbracketed hairline serifs. The letterforms show a modern, vertical stress and a clean, polished rhythm, with sharply tapered terminals and elegant joins. Proportions lean wide and open, giving capitals a stately footprint and allowing round letters like O and Q to feel expansive. Lowercase forms maintain a contemporary, sculpted look, with a two-storey a, compact ear on g, and fine, needle-like details that read best at display sizes.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine and editorial headlines, fashion and beauty branding, premium packaging, and posters. It can also work for book covers and pull quotes where its sharp contrast and wide proportions can be given room to breathe and print conditions can preserve the hairline details.
The overall tone is poised and premium, with a distinctly editorial polish. Its dramatic contrast and sharp finishing convey sophistication and authority, evoking fashion, culture, and high-end publishing aesthetics rather than casual or utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion serif voice: clean, vertical, and highly contrasted, prioritizing elegance and impact in large sizes. Its consistent modern stress and razor-fine finishing suggest a focus on refined display typography for premium and editorial contexts.
Numerals mirror the same high-contrast construction, combining sturdy verticals with delicate hairlines and pointed beaks/flags on forms like 2, 3, and 7. The sample text shows strong word-shape clarity in headlines, while the thinnest strokes and serifs become a defining feature that benefits from generous sizing and careful reproduction.
