A high-contrast serif with Didone-like construction and pronounced thick–thin transitions. The design uses deliberate stencil breaks that slice through stems, bowls, and joins, creating crisp bridges while keeping letterforms clearly legible. Serifs are sharp and minimally bracketed, with tall vertical emphasis and tightly controlled curves; rounds like C, O, and Q show sculpted, calligraphic modulation. Spacing appears somewhat lively across the set, with a rhythm that alternates between compact forms and more open, elegant capitals.
Best suited for headlines, large pull quotes, posters, and identity work where the stencil detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial passages or titling when set generously, but the fine hairlines and breaks suggest avoiding very small sizes or low-resolution reproduction.
The stencil interruptions give the face a dramatic, staged quality—part luxury editorial, part poster typography. It reads as refined but intentionally disruptive, combining classic high-fashion serif cues with a slightly clandestine, noir-like edge.
Likely designed to fuse classic high-contrast serif elegance with functional stencil construction, producing a distinctive display voice that feels both premium and industrial. The goal appears to be immediate recognition through sharp contrast, sculpted forms, and purposeful negative-space breaks.
The stencil cuts are consistently integrated rather than looking like after-the-fact distressing, and they remain visible even at text sizes in the sample. Numerals carry the same high-contrast logic with distinctive internal breaks, reinforcing a cohesive display character across letters and figures.
