A delicate, high‑contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and crisp, tapered serifs. The design emphasizes verticality through strong thick-to-thin transitions and a relatively narrow internal rhythm, while maintaining generous spacing that keeps forms from feeling crowded. Bowls are smooth and tensioned, with a pronounced vertical stress in round letters, and joints resolve into sharp, clean terminals. Numerals and capitals share the same elegant construction, with open counters and a disciplined, bookish geometry.
Well suited to editorial typography such as magazine layouts, book covers, and cultural or fashion publishing where high contrast can shine. It also works effectively for display settings—headlines, pull quotes, and refined branding—where the fine serifs and sharp terminals can be appreciated. For formal printed materials like invitations or programs, it delivers a classic, prestigious tone.
The overall tone is elegant and editorial, with a poised, upscale character that reads as traditional but polished. Its dramatic contrast and fine details evoke fashion, literature, and cultural publishing rather than utilitarian text. The mood is formal, calm, and refined, with a subtle sense of ceremony.
The font appears designed to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif: crisp, refined letterforms with a strong vertical structure and a distinctly editorial cadence. Its proportions and detailing suggest an emphasis on elegance and hierarchy in layouts, prioritizing visual sophistication in titles and curated reading experiences.
At larger sizes the hairlines and pointed terminals become a defining feature, giving headings a crisp sparkle. In continuous text, the consistent contrast and vertical stress create a steady, classical cadence, while the delicate serifs add a distinctly premium feel.
