A sculptural serif with strong contrast between thick stems and hairline joins, emphasizing wedge-like, flared terminals and crisp, triangular notches. The letterforms feel carved rather than written: strokes often end in sharp points, and counters are shaped by abrupt cut-ins that create a faceted, decorative rhythm. Proportions skew broad with generous horizontal presence, while spacing and widths vary noticeably across the set, producing an assertive, display-led texture. In text, the high contrast and pointed details create a lively sparkle with pronounced black/white patterning.
Best suited to headlines, magazine/editorial typography, branding marks, posters, and packaging where its sharp terminals and high-contrast detailing can remain clear. It can work for short text passages at comfortable sizes, but the faceted cut-ins and hairlines are most effective when given room and scale.
The overall tone is confident and theatrical, balancing classic serif formality with a distinctly stylized, cut-paper or engraved edge. It reads as fashion-forward and editorial, with a premium, attention-grabbing character that feels designed to be seen at size.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a traditional serif skeleton with a more angular, carved construction, prioritizing contrast and distinctive terminal shapes for impactful display typography. The result is a refined but unconventional serif meant to add drama and recognizable texture to titles and identity work.
Several glyphs show distinctive internal cuts and angled joins that can visually “hook” into adjacent letters, making kerning and line spacing especially noticeable in longer settings. Numerals and capitals carry the strongest decorative accents, reinforcing the font’s headline personality.
