A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a clear vertical stress. Hairline horizontals and delicate serifs sit against sturdy vertical stems, creating a crisp, glossy rhythm. Proportions feel expansive in capitals with generous width and ample counters, while the lowercase is comparatively compact with a notably small x-height. Curves are smooth and controlled, with sharp, clean joins and tapered details that read like modern Didone-inspired construction.
Best suited to large-size typography such as headlines, magazine covers, pull quotes, and luxury-oriented branding where contrast can be showcased. It can also work for premium packaging or event collateral that benefits from a refined, high-impact serif presence.
The overall tone is polished and theatrical, balancing sophistication with punchy contrast. It evokes luxury editorial typography—poised, confident, and intentionally attention-grabbing—especially when set large where the hairlines can shimmer against the heavy strokes.
The design appears intended to deliver an upscale, modern-classic serif voice with maximum contrast and a strong vertical structure. Its wide caps and precise hairlines suggest a focus on display impact and editorial elegance rather than everyday text economy.
In the sample text, the extreme contrast and fine hairlines create striking word shapes and dramatic emphasis in display settings, while dense paragraphs can look busy as thin strokes and tiny interior details compete. The numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with bold main strokes and needle-thin cross strokes that heighten the fashion-forward feel.
