A sharply modeled serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and sculpted, flaring stroke terminals. Serifs read as tapered and wedge-like with subtle bracketing, giving stems a carved, chiseled finish rather than blunt endings. Curves are taut and oval, counters are relatively tight, and joins show a calligraphic logic that keeps the rhythm lively at display sizes. The lowercase has compact proportions with strong vertical stress, while capitals feel stately and slightly wide, creating emphatic word shapes in headlines and short lines.
Best suited to headlines, deck copy, pull quotes, and poster typography where its contrast and sculpted terminals can provide strong typographic personality. It can also serve luxury branding, packaging, and magazine identities that benefit from a refined, high-impact serif voice.
The overall tone is dramatic and editorial, with a polished, high-end feel that suggests fashion, art publishing, and premium branding. Its crisp contrast and flared endings lend a sense of ceremony and sophistication, while the energetic shapes keep it from feeling purely traditional.
The design appears intended to deliver a contemporary display serif that references classical, calligraphic construction while emphasizing modern sharpness and contrast. The flared stroke endings and disciplined vertical rhythm aim to create a distinctive, premium texture for editorial and brand-forward settings.
The numerals and punctuation carry the same sharp modulation, helping mixed text maintain a consistent sparkle and hierarchy. In the sample paragraph, the dense color and tight internal spaces make it feel most natural at larger sizes where the sharp terminals and contrast can read cleanly.
