This serif typeface features pronounced thick–thin contrast with hairline connecting strokes and finely tapered, bracketed serifs. Uppercase forms are tall and relatively narrow with a restrained, classical construction and clean, open counters. The lowercase maintains a measured rhythm with compact bowls, delicate terminals, and a two‑storey “a,” producing an overall light, airy texture. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with slender stems and elegant curves that keep the page color bright and refined.
It performs especially well in magazines and editorial layouts, book titles, and refined headlines where high contrast can add sophistication. It can also suit formal announcements and invitation-style materials, particularly at sizes large enough to preserve the delicate serifs and thin strokes.
The overall tone is poised and sophisticated, with an editorial, high-end sensibility. Its delicate detailing and sharp contrast lend a quiet formality that feels well suited to polished, literary, or fashion-leaning typography.
The letterforms suggest an intention to deliver a contemporary, fashion-forward take on a classical serif: slender proportions, high contrast, and crisp detailing aimed at elegant typography and elevated page color rather than heavy, utilitarian text setting.
The design reads best where its hairline details can remain crisp; the light joins and fine serifs create a refined silhouette, while the narrow proportions help set dense, elegant lines without feeling heavy. Curved letters show smooth modulation and controlled flare at terminals, reinforcing a precise, carefully drawn character.
