A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and crisp, wedge-like serifs. Stems often swell as they meet the terminals, creating flared endings that feel carved rather than bracketed. The design favors tight joins and pointed interior angles, with teardrop-like apertures and sharply cut terminals on letters such as C, G, S, and the lower-case a. Proportions are moderately condensed in places with lively width variation, and the numerals share the same chiseled, tapered logic for a cohesive texture in display settings.
Best suited to headlines, magazine titling, book covers, and poster typography where its sharp details and contrast can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for short pull quotes or section headers that need a premium, impactful voice.
The overall tone is theatrical and editorial, combining a classical, engraved sensibility with modern punch. Its sharp terminals and dramatic modulation give it an upscale, assertive presence that reads as refined but attention-seeking.
The font appears designed to deliver a sculpted, high-contrast serif look with flared terminals that amplify elegance and drama. Its goal is likely to provide a distinctive display serif that feels classical and crafted while remaining bold and contemporary in texture.
Round letters show distinctive pointed cuts and asymmetrical stress, producing a textured rhythm across words. Lowercase forms lean toward display-friendly shapes with pronounced contrast and tight counters, while capitals hold a strong, poster-like stance.
