A high-contrast serif with thick vertical stems and hairline horizontals, paired with wedge-like, flared terminals that give the letterforms a chiseled finish. Serifs are sharp and tapered rather than bracketed, and many strokes end in pointed beaks or angled cuts, producing a crisp, sculptural silhouette. Round letters (O, C, G, Q) show pronounced thick–thin modulation, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) remain strong and clean with fine joins. Lowercase forms are compact and sturdy with small apertures and assertive terminals; the numerals follow the same pattern, with a notably thin "1" and curving, calligraphic influence in "2" and "9".
Best suited to headlines, magazine spreads, and other display applications where its contrast and sharp terminals can read as intentional detail. It also works well for luxury branding, packaging, and event materials that benefit from a stately, high-impact serif voice.
The overall tone is formal and theatrical, projecting refinement and authority with a fashion-forward edge. Its sharp hairlines and flared endings add a sense of ceremony and tension, making it feel premium and attention-grabbing rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary take on a classical high-contrast serif, emphasizing dramatic thick–thin modulation and flared, sculpted terminals for maximum presence. It prioritizes visual impact and refinement, aiming to stand out in large sizes while maintaining a cohesive, polished texture.
In the text sample, the contrast and hairlines create a lively sparkle at display sizes, while the dense black shapes and tight inner counters can feel weighty in longer passages. The design maintains consistent rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and figures, with a strong vertical emphasis and clear punctuation presence.
