A high-contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and strong vertical stress. Serifs are small and pointed, often ending in triangular, flared terminals that give strokes a chiseled, sculptural finish. Capitals are elegant and high-waisted with generous counters (notably in C, O, Q), while curves transition quickly between thick and thin, producing a crisp rhythm. Lowercase keeps a relatively moderate x-height but leans toward display proportions, with narrow joins, delicate arms, and a distinctive double-storey a that emphasizes contrast and tension.
This font is best suited to headlines, deck type, and short editorial passages where its contrast and sharp terminals can be appreciated. It fits brand marks and identity systems for beauty, fashion, hospitality, and premium consumer goods, and works well on posters and packaging where a crisp, upscale voice is desired.
The overall tone is polished and theatrical, evoking fashion mastheads, luxury packaging, and high-end editorial typography. Its dramatic thick–thin interplay feels formal and curated, with a modern sharpness that reads as premium and style-forward rather than casual.
The design appears intended as a contemporary high-fashion display serif that blends classical high-contrast construction with crisp, flared finishing details. Its proportions and sparkling hairlines prioritize impact and refinement for prominent sizes and carefully set typography.
In the text sample, the hairlines and pointed terminals remain prominent, giving the type a sparkling texture at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same display logic, with pronounced contrast and refined, slightly calligraphic shaping that matches the uppercase.
