A delicate serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, hairline bracketed serifs. The drawing is upright and carefully proportioned, with generous curves and a smooth, controlled rhythm in text. Capitals show a classical, slightly calligraphic influence with tapered joins and high-contrast strokes, while the lowercase keeps a measured x-height and elegant ascenders/descenders. Numerals and punctuation follow the same refined contrast, with clear, open counters and precise terminals.
Well suited for editorial design, magazine typography, and book titling where a refined, high-contrast serif can carry an upscale voice. It also fits luxury branding and formal collateral such as invitations and event materials, especially when set at larger sizes that showcase its hairline details.
The overall tone is polished and literary, suggesting sophistication and restraint rather than boldness. Its fine detailing and high-contrast structure give it a premium, fashion-and-editorial feel, well suited to elegant, formal messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classical text serif: elegant proportions, pronounced contrast, and carefully finished serifs aimed at high-end editorial and branding contexts. Its consistent rhythm and precise terminals suggest a focus on graceful, polished typography rather than rugged everyday utility.
In the sample text, the thin hairlines and sharp serifs create a bright, airy color on the page, emphasizing elegance and spacing. The design reads cleanly at display and larger text sizes, where its contrast and terminal finesse are most apparent.
