A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and broad vertical stems, producing a crisp, polished rhythm. Serifs are sharp and delicate, often wedge-like, with subtle bracketing that keeps joins clean rather than blunt. Curves are smooth and taut, with teardrop and ball-like terminals appearing in places (notably in the lowercase), and the overall construction favors vertical stress and slender inner spaces. Uppercase proportions feel stately and slightly narrow, while the lowercase maintains a traditional text-seriffed structure with lively details in letters like a, g, and e. Numerals follow the same contrasty logic, with fine, calligraphic hairlines and prominent thick strokes that read best at display sizes.
Well suited to magazine headlines, fashion branding, luxury packaging, and refined promotional materials where contrast and elegance are an asset. It can also work for invitations or short-form formal text, while longer passages benefit from generous size and spacing to preserve the delicate hairlines.
The font conveys luxury and sophistication with a distinctly dramatic, high-fashion tone. Its extreme contrast and precise finishing suggest formality and confidence, leaning more toward editorial glamour than utilitarian neutrality.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary, high-end serif voice rooted in classic high-contrast forms, prioritizing elegance and visual drama for display and editorial typography.
In text settings the thin horizontals and hairline serifs create a bright, shimmering texture, especially in tight lines or on low-resolution output. The design’s personality is driven by fine terminal shapes and the interplay of thick/thin strokes, giving headlines a distinctive, upscale snap while keeping classic serif conventions intact.
