A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and flared stroke endings that broaden into sharp, wedge-like terminals. The design shows crisp, sculpted contours and a slightly calligraphic logic in the way strokes taper into joins, especially in diagonals and curved letters. Caps feel broad and stately with generous internal space, while lowercase maintains a steady, readable texture with rounded bowls and crisp finishing strokes. Numerals follow the same dramatic contrast and pointed terminal language, reading cleanly at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, magazine decks, and large-format typography where the contrast and flared endings can be appreciated. It also fits premium branding, packaging, and cultural/arts materials that benefit from a refined, high-impact serif voice.
The overall tone is elegant and editorial, projecting a polished, fashion-forward seriousness. Its sharp terminals and dramatic contrast add a sense of ceremony and sophistication, leaning more boutique and gallery than casual or utilitarian.
The design appears intended to blend classical serif structure with a contemporary, fashion/editorial edge, using dramatic modulation and flared terminals to create presence and sophistication in display settings.
The face relies on distinctive flare and taper rather than bracketed softness, producing a chiseled, high-end look. In the sample text, the contrast and sharp terminals create a lively rhythm and clear word shapes, with emphasis naturally pulled toward vertical stems and prominent capitals.
