A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and an overall airy color. Strokes are sharply tapered into hairlines, with finely bracketed serifs and clean, crisp terminals that keep the letterforms feeling controlled rather than ornate. The proportions run on the wide side with generous sidebearings, while round forms are smooth and open; curves often resolve into pointed joins that add a subtle calligraphic edge. Numerals share the same light, high-contrast construction and read as suited to display sizes.
It’s well suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, and titling where its high contrast and refined serif work can be appreciated. The wide proportions and airy spacing also fit book covers, cultural branding, and formal invitations, especially in larger sizes where the hairline details remain clear.
The font conveys a poised, cultured tone—quietly luxurious rather than loud. Its thin hairlines and sculpted serifs evoke fashion and bookish editorial design, balancing classic influence with a modern, uncluttered finish.
This design appears intended as an elegant, high-contrast serif for sophisticated display typography, combining classic serif structure with a lighter, fashion-forward finish and generous spacing for a premium feel.
In continuous text, the strong contrast and fine detailing create a lively rhythm, with horizontals and hairlines receding and verticals carrying most of the visual weight. Ascenders feel relatively tall, and the overall spacing contributes to a calm, premium texture at larger sizes.
