A decorative serif with chunky, sculpted letterforms and sharply cut wedge-like serifs. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation with crisp, chiseled joins and frequent triangular notches that read like ink traps or carved cut-ins. Curves are taut and slightly faceted, while stems often feel subtly tapered, giving the alphabet an animated, irregular rhythm. Counters are compact and the numerals follow the same high-contrast, cutaway construction, producing a bold, emblematic silhouette in text.
Best suited for headlines and short-form display typography such as magazine covers, posters, titles, and standout pull quotes. It can also add a premium, crafted feel to branding and packaging where distinctive letterforms are a feature rather than a background element.
The overall tone is dramatic and high-fashion, with a distinctly theatrical, vintage-leaning presence. Its sharp cut-ins and flared finishing strokes suggest a crafted, display-first personality—confident, stylish, and slightly eccentric rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classic high-contrast serif construction with bold, geometric cutaways and wedge terminals to maximize impact in display settings. The consistent notch-and-flare motif suggests a goal of creating a recognizable signature texture and an expressive, carved aesthetic.
In the sample text, the strong interior cutouts create lively texture and clear word shapes at larger sizes, but the tight counters and sharp notches can visually fill in as size decreases. Capital forms feel especially monumental and poster-like, while lowercase keeps the same carved rhythm for a cohesive voice across headings.
