A delicate, high-contrast serif with hairline joins and sharply tapered details. Vertical strokes read as sturdy spines that transition into fine terminals, while serifs and stroke endings often flare subtly rather than landing as flat slabs. Curves are smooth and generous, with tight, pointed apertures in letters like C, S, and a, and a crisp rhythm created by thin crossbars and precise entry/exit strokes. Uppercase forms feel stately and poised; lowercase shows a classic text structure with a double-storey g, a narrow, clean t, and elegant bowls, maintaining a consistent, polished texture in paragraphs.
This face is well suited to magazine headlines, display typography, and upscale branding where elegance and contrast are assets. It can also work for pull quotes and short-to-medium editorial passages when set with comfortable size and leading to preserve the fine details.
The overall tone is refined and formal, with a distinctly luxe, editorial voice. Its sharp tapers and airy counters suggest sophistication and restraint, lending a premium, fashion-forward feel without becoming ornate or decorative.
The font appears designed to deliver a modern, high-fashion interpretation of a classic serif: sharp, clean, and contrast-driven, with subtle flaring at terminals to add sophistication and a bespoke finish.
The design relies on fine hairlines for character, so it reads especially crisp at larger sizes where the contrast and tapered terminals are fully visible. Numerals follow the same refined logic, with thin links and elegant curves that align with the text’s poised, high-end rhythm.
