A refined serif with pronounced stroke contrast and crisp, tapered serifs. Vertical stems read firm and straight while hairline horizontals and joins stay delicate, producing a bright, airy texture in text. Capitals are proportioned with a classical, slightly narrow posture and carefully controlled curves, and the lowercase shows a balanced rhythm with a two-storey a, a compact e, and a single-storey g with a distinct ear. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with thin connecting strokes and elegant, open counters.
This font is well suited to editorial typography—magazine layouts, book covers, and display settings where contrast and elegance are priorities. It can also support premium branding and packaging when used at larger sizes, where the fine hairlines and sharp terminals can be appreciated.
The overall tone is poised and polished, leaning toward luxury and editorial sophistication. Its sharp hairlines and composed proportions convey a formal, cultured voice suited to high-end presentation rather than utilitarian neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classic high-contrast text and display serifs, emphasizing sophistication, clarity of form, and a luxurious page color. It prioritizes elegance and typographic drama over ruggedness or neutrality.
Round letters such as O and Q show smooth, even curves with a subtle, clean finish, while diagonals in V, W, and X maintain a taut, chiseled feel. The italic-like calligraphic influence is minimal; instead the design relies on contrast, tapering, and precise serif terminals to create personality.
