A refined serif with dramatic thick–thin modulation and crisp hairline finishing. The shapes are built from broad, confident main strokes that taper into delicate, bracketed serifs and sharp terminals, giving the letters a sculpted, high-waisted look. Counters are generally generous and round, while joins and curves show controlled, calligraphic tension. The lowercase uses a two-storey a and g, a compact, slightly pinched s, and a distinctive, looped y descender; numerals follow the same razor-thin finishing with prominent contrast.
Best suited to display typography such as editorial headlines, pull quotes, magazine and book covers, and luxury or beauty branding where its contrast and sharp finishing can be appreciated. It also works for short, carefully set paragraphs in high-quality print or large on-screen sizes, especially when paired with a simpler companion for supporting text.
The overall tone is polished and high-end, with a distinctly editorial and fashion-forward feel. Its sharp contrast and clean, poised rhythm convey sophistication and formality, while the lively curves add a hint of contemporary flair.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern-didone style of elegance: strong vertical structure, dramatic modulation, and meticulous hairline detailing aimed at premium, image-led typography. It prioritizes visual sophistication and headline impact while keeping classic serif conventions for familiar reading behavior.
The font’s most noticeable trait is the consistent use of hairline details—serifs, cross-strokes, and inner joins—that create a bright, sparkling texture at display sizes. In longer setting, the strong vertical emphasis and thin connectors produce a refined, airy color that benefits from comfortable tracking and good contrast in printing or high-resolution screens.
