A high-contrast serif with a pronounced rightward slant and a sleek, compressed presence. Thick vertical stems are paired with very thin hairlines and sharp, wedge-like serifs, creating crisp edges and bright counters. The design shows strong calligraphic stress and energetic rhythm, with pointed joins and tapered terminals that keep the texture lively even at heavier sizes. Numerals and capitals appear tall and commanding, while the lowercase maintains a traditional structure with compact bowls and tight apertures.
Best suited for display typography such as magazine headlines, cover lines, posters, and branded campaigns where contrast and elegance are desired. It can also work for short editorial bursts—pull quotes, section openers, and high-impact subheads—where the sharp hairlines and tight rhythm can be given sufficient size and breathing room.
The overall tone is polished and assertive, with a distinctly editorial, fashion-forward elegance. Its sharp contrast and slanted posture give it a dramatic, high-end feel suited to attention-grabbing typography, while the classic serif construction keeps it grounded and familiar.
Likely designed to deliver a contemporary, fashion-oriented take on a classic high-contrast serif, emphasizing dramatic stroke interplay and a sleek italic posture for expressive, premium-feeling typography.
The slant and contrast produce a sparkling page color, especially in mixed-case settings where hairlines thread between bold strokes. The spacing reads on the tight side, contributing to a dense, stylish texture that favors larger sizes and confident headlines.
