A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and weighty vertical stems, producing a crisp, polished rhythm. Serifs are fine and pointed with subtle bracketing, and many joins resolve into wedge-like terminals that feel precise rather than soft. Round letters show pronounced thick–thin modulation and tight, clean curves, while capitals maintain a stately, vertical stance with ample internal counters. Lowercase forms are compact and controlled, with neat ball terminals and consistent stress that reads as contemporary Didone-influenced text styling.
Best suited to editorial headlines, magazine typography, and brand applications where contrast and sophistication are desirable. It performs especially well in titles, pull quotes, and short-to-medium text at comfortable sizes, and can add a premium feel to invitations, packaging, and cultural posters.
The tone is luxurious and composed, with a distinctly editorial sheen. Its sharp contrast and refined detailing evoke fashion, art publishing, and upscale branding, balancing classic formality with a modern, glossy finish.
The design appears aimed at delivering a modern, high-fashion serif voice with classic proportions and dramatic stroke modulation. It prioritizes elegance and visual impact, offering a refined, print-like presence for contemporary editorial and branding contexts.
In the sample text, the strong verticals create a confident typographic color, while the hairlines add sparkle at display sizes. The numerals and punctuation inherit the same razor-thin detailing, giving headings and pull quotes a cohesive, high-end voice.
