A high-contrast serif with a distinctly vertical rhythm, pairing stout main stems with very thin hairlines and crisply cut serifs. The forms show pronounced thick–thin transitions, sharp inner joins, and a slightly sculpted, calligraphic feel in curves, with vertical stress evident in round letters. Capitals are tall and commanding, while the lowercase maintains a moderate x-height with compact counters and clear stroke modulation. Numerals follow the same display-leaning contrast, with elegant curves and narrow hairline details that sharpen the overall silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, magazine typography, and brand-led applications where strong contrast and sharp detail can be appreciated. It will perform especially well in larger sizes for editorial titles, pull quotes, invitations, and premium packaging, and can be used for short paragraphs when set with comfortable size and leading.
The tone reads polished and editorial, leaning toward luxury and high-fashion sensibilities. Its dramatic contrast and clean, upright posture convey sophistication and authority, with just enough calligraphic nuance to feel premium rather than purely mechanical.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a traditional high-contrast serif: authoritative, stylish, and optimized for impactful typography. Its combination of classical proportions and razor-thin detailing suggests a focus on elegant display work with an upscale, editorial finish.
Spacing appears balanced for display-sized settings, where the hairlines remain visible and the contrast becomes a defining texture. The design’s crisp terminals and thin cross-strokes create a lively sparkle, especially in mixed-case text and figures, while maintaining an overall conventional serif discipline.
