A delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline terminals and a crisp vertical stress. Stems are slender and the joins are clean, producing a bright, airy texture in text. Serifs are fine and bracketed, with subtle calligraphic shaping in curves and shoulders; round letters show smooth, controlled ovals while diagonals (V, W, Y) feel sharp and poised. The lowercase keeps a moderate x-height with narrow apertures and light, tapering entry/exit strokes, and the figures follow the same refined contrast with thin horizontals and elegant curves.
Well suited to editorial layouts, magazine and journal typography, and refined branding where a high-end, classic voice is needed. It shines in headlines, pull quotes, and larger-size text settings where the fine serifs and contrast can be appreciated without being overwhelmed by reproduction constraints.
The overall tone is polished and formal, leaning toward fashion and literary editorial aesthetics. Its lightness and contrast convey luxury and restraint, with a composed, slightly dramatic presence suited to sophisticated typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on classical high-contrast serif typography: graceful, minimal in weight, and optimized for elegance in display and editorial settings. The consistent hairline details and measured proportions suggest a focus on sophisticated tone and typographic finesse rather than rugged utility.
In longer text the rhythm is even and calm, with pronounced thin strokes that create a shimmering page color at larger sizes. The capitals are stately and open, and the numerals and punctuation match the same fine, precise detailing, reinforcing a cohesive, upscale impression.
