A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and strong, vertical stems that create a crisp, stately rhythm. Serifs are fine and tapered, often ending in pointed, wedge-like terminals that keep the silhouette sharp rather than bracketted or slabby. Curves are smooth and controlled, with tight joins and small counters in letters like a, e, and s, giving the lowercase a compact, neatly structured feel. Overall proportions read slender and tall, with a disciplined, upright axis and a clean, polished texture in text settings.
Well suited to magazine typography, high-end branding, and packaging where a luxurious, carefully drawn serif is desired. It also fits invitations and cultural or editorial headlines that need a poised, elevated tone, and can work for short text passages when set at sizes that preserve its fine details.
The font projects an editorial, luxury tone—cool, composed, and intentionally sophisticated. Its contrast and precise terminals suggest a fashion- and magazine-oriented voice, while the traditional serif construction keeps it anchored in a classic, literary sensibility.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classic high-contrast serif: elegant, sharp-edged, and optimized for premium editorial and branding contexts where refined detail is part of the message.
The numerals and capitals maintain a formal, display-minded presence, with sharp diagonals and thin connecting strokes that emphasize elegance over sturdiness. In longer passages, the tight apertures and delicate hairlines contribute to a refined color that benefits from generous point sizes and comfortable spacing.
