A high-contrast serif with strongly vertical stress and crisp, knife-like serifs. Thick stems pair with hairline joins and thin horizontals, creating a bright, punchy rhythm in text. The serifs are sharply tapered and often slightly bracketed, with sculpted, calligraphic terminals on characters like S, a, and g. Counters are compact and rounded, and the overall silhouette reads sturdy and substantial despite the fine connecting strokes.
Best suited to display typography such as magazine headlines, pull quotes, posters, and brand wordmarks where its contrast and sharp serifs can be appreciated. It can also work for elegant packaging and invitations, especially when paired with generous spacing and high-quality printing.
The font projects an editorial, luxury tone with a sense of drama and formality. Its sharp detailing and pronounced contrast give it a fashion-magazine and classic print feel, while the heavy main strokes add authority and presence.
The design appears aimed at delivering a contemporary take on classic high-contrast serif typography: bold, attention-grabbing forms with refined hairlines and crisp detailing for premium editorial and branding contexts.
In the sample text, the dense color and strong contrast make it excel at large sizes, where the fine hairlines and terminals remain legible and contribute sparkle. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic with bold bodies and refined thin strokes, keeping a cohesive typographic color across mixed content.
