A high-contrast serif with sharp, hairline joins and strong vertical stress. The serifs are finely bracketed and tapered, creating crisp terminals and a sculpted, calligraphic rhythm. Capitals feel tall and poised with generous internal space, while the lowercase maintains a measured x-height and elegant, narrow apertures. Overall proportions are balanced but show subtle, deliberate width variation across characters, reinforcing a lively, editorial texture in text.
Well-suited to editorial settings such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, and elegant display typography where contrast and refinement are assets. It also fits premium branding and packaging, and can work for book covers and section titles when set with comfortable spacing and high-quality output.
The tone is polished and cultured, with a distinctly upscale, fashion-forward sensibility. Its dramatic stroke contrast and delicate finishing details convey sophistication, confidence, and a sense of heritage without feeling ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of a traditional text serif, prioritizing elegance, sharp detailing, and a dramatic thick–thin rhythm that stands out in display and editorial contexts.
In the sample text, the strong thick–thin modulation produces a striking page color at larger sizes, while the hairlines become a defining detail that benefits from clean reproduction. The numerals share the same refined contrast and tapered finishing, matching the overall formal character of the letters.
