A crisp modern serif with extreme thick–thin contrast and razor hairlines, pairing broad vertical stems with delicate connecting strokes. Serifs are fine and sharp, often lightly bracketed, giving a polished, engraved feel without becoming a slab. Capitals are stately and wide-set with clean geometry, while the lowercase shows a compact, controlled rhythm with a two-storey a and g and narrow apertures. Curves are taut and elegant, terminals are precise, and spacing reads intentionally airy in display sizes, producing a composed, high-end texture in text settings.
Well-suited to large-size typography such as magazine headlines, fashion lookbooks, brand marks, and premium packaging where contrast and detail can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial decks and pull quotes when ample size and careful spacing are used, rather than dense body copy at small sizes.
The tone is elegant and image-conscious, with a strong editorial and fashion sensibility. Its high-contrast strokes and sharp finishing details create a sense of drama and sophistication, suitable for premium, curated branding. Overall it feels poised and formal rather than casual or rustic.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary luxury serif voice: high contrast, sharp detail, and a composed, editorial rhythm. It prioritizes visual impact and refined silhouette, aiming for a premium impression in display-led applications.
The numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with thin entry strokes and strong verticals that read well at larger sizes. Diagonals (V, W, X) are crisp and assertive, and rounded letters maintain tight, controlled counters that reinforce a sleek, modern character.
