A high-contrast serif with pronounced vertical stress, combining thick, confident main stems with extremely fine hairlines. Serifs are sharp and delicate, with minimal bracketing and a clean, cut-in feel at joins. Curves are smooth and controlled, while terminals and crossbars stay thin, producing a crisp, polished rhythm. Proportions skew wide in many capitals and rounds, and spacing reads open, with a distinctly display-oriented texture at larger sizes.
Best suited to large-size settings such as magazine headlines, fashion spreads, brand marks, and premium packaging where its contrast and hairlines can render cleanly. It can also work for short pull quotes and elegant titling, but the fine details suggest avoiding very small sizes or low-quality reproduction environments.
The font conveys a refined, high-end tone associated with luxury branding and fashion/editorial typography. Its dramatic contrast and hairline details feel formal and precise, creating an elegant but assertive voice. Overall, it reads as sophisticated and modern-classic rather than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary, high-fashion take on classic high-contrast serif typography: wide, poised letterforms paired with razor-thin details for maximum elegance and impact in display contexts.
The uppercase shows strong monumentality with broad bowls (notably in round letters), while the lowercase maintains a steady, readable x-height and a slightly calligraphic elegance driven by stress. Numerals follow the same contrast logic, with slender joins and prominent thick-thin transitions that emphasize a polished, premium aesthetic.
