A tightly set, display-focused serif with pronounced contrast between thick verticals and hairline connections. Stems finish in flared, wedge-like serif forms that read as sharp and sculptural rather than bracketed, giving the letters a carved, poster-style presence. Proportions run tall with compact counters and narrow sidebearings, producing a dense rhythm in text. Curves show a mostly vertical stress, and the numerals and capitals maintain a consistent, forceful silhouette that stays crisp even at large sizes.
Best used for headlines, mastheads, pull quotes, and poster typography where its high-contrast strokes and flared endings can read cleanly at larger sizes. It can also support bold brand marks and packaging titles that benefit from a sharp, upscale voice, while extended body text may feel dense due to the narrow fit and strong contrast.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, with a fashionable, high-end editorial feel. Its sharp flares and high-contrast tension suggest formality and drama—suited to attention-grabbing statements rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a dramatic, contemporary take on flared serif display lettering, emphasizing sharp terminals, compact spacing, and striking thick–thin modulation for maximum impact in editorial and branding contexts.
In longer lines the tight fit and strong thick–thin transitions create a lively, shimmering texture, especially around rounded forms and diagonals. The ampersand and punctuation match the same sharp, flared vocabulary, reinforcing a cohesive, display-oriented character.
