A sculpted display serif with razor-thin hairlines set against heavy vertical stems and broad, tapering curves. Serifs and terminals often resolve into sharp wedges and flares, with distinctive triangular notches where strokes join, giving many letters a carved, cut-paper feel. Curves are taut and high-contrast, counters are relatively compact, and spacing feels intentionally uneven in a lively, headline-oriented rhythm. Numerals and capitals carry the strongest personality, with angular diagonals and pointed joins that heighten the graphic silhouette.
Best suited to display settings such as magazine headlines, fashion and cultural posters, brand wordmarks, and premium packaging. It can also work for pull quotes and section openers where its sharp contrast and sculpted terminals can carry the layout; for long passages, it will be most successful at larger text sizes with generous leading.
The overall tone is theatrical and upscale, blending classic bookish authority with a fashion-forward edge. Its sharp wedges and dramatic contrast evoke magazine mastheads, luxury packaging, and poster typography where impact and elegance need to coexist. The notched joins add a slightly eccentric, bespoke character—more “designed” than neutral.
The font appears designed to reinterpret high-contrast, Didone-inspired serif forms with deliberately cut-in notches and wedge-like terminals, prioritizing a memorable silhouette and editorial sophistication. The consistent use of angular joins suggests an intention to add texture and signature detail while keeping overall proportions familiar enough for confident headline setting.
The design relies on fine hairlines and sharp internal points that can visually fill in at small sizes or on coarse printing, so it reads best when given room to breathe. Lowercase shows similar high-contrast construction but with simpler forms; the distinctive notching remains a key identifying trait across the set. The italic is not shown, and all samples appear upright.
