A high-contrast serif with tapered, flaring stroke endings and a distinctly sculpted silhouette. The verticals read firm and straight while joins and terminals narrow quickly, creating sharp internal pinch points and bright, open counters. Serifs are fine and bracketed with a subtle flare rather than slab-like blocks, and the overall rhythm is compact with relatively tight letterfit and narrow proportions. Curved letters show a controlled, slightly calligraphic modulation, and the numerals follow the same crisp, tapered logic for a cohesive text-and-display texture.
Well-suited to magazine and newspaper-style headlines, pull quotes, and elegant titling where contrast and sculpted serifs can be appreciated. It can also support upscale branding and packaging systems that need a refined serif with a modern edge, particularly at display sizes.
The tone is polished and editorial, with a fashionable, high-end feel driven by sharp contrast and refined finishing. Its flared terminals add a touch of humanist warmth while the crisp edges keep the voice contemporary and precise.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant, high-contrast serif texture with flared, tapered endings that add character without becoming ornamental. It balances editorial authority with a fashion-forward sharpness, aiming for impact in titles and prominent typography.
In continuous text the strong contrast produces a lively shimmer and pronounced vertical emphasis, while the compact widths make headlines feel efficient and tall. The design’s tapered joins and delicate serifs reward generous sizes and clean reproduction, where the fine details remain distinct.
