This typeface is built on very thin hairline strokes with sharp, bracketless serifs and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Capitals are tall and poised with generous interior space, while lowercase forms keep a modest x-height and long, tapering ascenders/descenders that add vertical elegance. Curves are smooth and controlled, terminals are crisp, and the overall rhythm feels measured, with narrow letterforms and ample white space contributing to a light, spacious color in text.
It performs best in magazine/editorial layouts, fashion and beauty branding, and other premium applications where an elegant, high-contrast serif is desired. Use it for headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and large-format typography where the hairline detailing can be appreciated and the page can support generous whitespace.
The overall tone is sophisticated and minimalist, with a couture/editorial polish. Its extreme delicacy reads luxurious and modern-classical, emphasizing refinement over sturdiness.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary Didone-inspired voice: tall proportions, precise serifs, and dramatic contrast aimed at high-end editorial and brand expression rather than utilitarian text durability.
The ampersand and numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, giving figures a graceful, display-forward presence. At paragraph size the hairline joins and fine serifs create a pale texture that favors clean printing and careful spacing over rugged, everyday reading conditions.
