A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and smooth, tapered joins that create a subtly flared finish on many strokes. Serifs are sharp and refined rather than blocky, with wedge-like terminals and crisp beaks that give the forms a sculpted, cut-in look. Proportions lean classical: capitals are stately and fairly wide, while the lowercase shows a short x-height with prominent ascenders and descenders, producing a strong vertical rhythm. Curves are generous and round (notably in O/Q and the numerals), with tight apertures and compact counters that read best at display sizes.
This font is well suited to editorial headlines, magazine mastheads, posters, and luxury-oriented branding where crisp contrast and refined detail can shine. It will also work for packaging and display typography that aims for a classic, upscale impression.
The overall tone is poised and premium, combining traditional book-serif authority with a fashion-forward sense of drama. Its high contrast and sharp terminals convey elegance and sophistication, while the flared, calligraphic undertone adds a slightly theatrical, editorial feel.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, high-fashion serif voice with classical proportions and modern sharpness, emphasizing contrast, elegance, and a distinctive flared finishing to strokes for memorable display impact.
The figures appear lining with strong contrast and distinctive, calligraphic shaping (especially in 2, 3, 6, and 9). The lowercase a and g are compact and stylized, contributing to an intentionally formal texture; spacing in text samples reads dense and deliberate, reinforcing a headline-oriented voice.
