A high-contrast serif with hairline horizontals and thick, sculpted vertical strokes, producing a distinctly crisp, polished texture. Serifs are fine and precise with tapered, knife-like terminals, while curves show smooth modulation and tight joins. Uppercase proportions feel tall and poised with generous counters, and the lowercase balances compact bowls with long, delicate ascenders and descenders. Numerals and punctuation follow the same refined contrast, creating a clean, formal rhythm that reads best at larger sizes.
Well-suited for display typography such as magazine titles, fashion and beauty layouts, luxury branding, and refined packaging. It also works for pull quotes and short editorial headings where its contrast and hairline detailing can be appreciated without the constraints of small-size text.
The overall tone is elegant and high-end, with a poised, editorial sensibility. Its sharp hairlines and dramatic stroke contrast suggest sophistication and ceremony, giving layouts a premium, fashion-forward voice.
The font appears designed to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif elegance, prioritizing sharp detail, clean rhythm, and a premium presence for display use. Its consistent modulation and precise terminals suggest an intention to feel both timeless and sharply modern in editorial and brand settings.
The design’s thin connecting strokes and fine details create a bright, airy page color, but they also make the face visually delicate in small sizes or on low-resolution output. Letterforms maintain a consistent, controlled axis and a disciplined rhythm that supports polished headline composition.
