A high‑contrast serif with sharply tapered hairlines and strong, dark main stems. Serifs are fine and pointed, often resolving into needle-like terminals that give the outlines a crisp, engraved feel. Curves are smooth and controlled, with a slightly calligraphic modulation visible in rounded letters and in the numbers. Proportions lean toward display-oriented: capitals are stately and wide in presence, while lowercase forms keep a balanced, readable rhythm with relatively open counters and clean joins.
Best suited for headlines, magazine typography, and brand identities where elegance and contrast can be showcased. It will perform particularly well in large sizes for editorial covers, beauty/fashion campaigns, and premium packaging, where the fine serifs and sharp terminals remain clear and intentional.
The overall tone is polished and upscale, with a dramatic sheen that reads as contemporary editorial. Its thin finishing strokes and precise terminals add a sense of sophistication and formality, suggesting premium branding and high-end publishing aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion take on a conventional serif, emphasizing dramatic contrast and razor-fine finishing strokes for impact. It prioritizes refined presence and typographic polish in display and editorial contexts.
The sample text shows strong word-shape clarity at larger sizes, where the contrast and delicate details are most legible. Numerals follow the same refined logic, combining sturdy verticals with elegant tapering and distinctive curves, contributing to a cohesive, boutique feel.
