This typeface is a sharp, high-contrast serif with hairline horizontals and tapered, flared stroke endings that give stems a subtly sculpted, calligraphic feel. Serifs are delicate and mostly bracketed, with smooth transitions into main strokes and pointed, wedge-like terminals in places. Proportions lean elegant and slightly condensed in the capitals, while the lowercase maintains a balanced rhythm with open counters and a clean, controlled modulation. Numerals follow the same refined contrast, with flowing curves and thin joins that read best when given room.
It excels in headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and other display typography where contrast and fine terminals can be appreciated. The refined serif detailing also suits luxury branding, beauty or fashion contexts, and high-end packaging where an elegant, elevated voice is desired.
The overall tone is polished and fashion-forward, with a dramatic, editorial sparkle driven by extreme contrast and crisp detailing. It conveys sophistication and formality while retaining a touch of contemporary sharpness, making text feel curated and premium rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-fashion serif personality by combining classical proportions with pronounced contrast and flared, sculpted endings. Its forms prioritize visual drama and refinement over ruggedness, aiming for striking, premium typography in display-led settings.
In the sample text, the hairlines and joins become very fine at smaller sizes, so the design’s detail and flare effects are most apparent when set at display sizes or with generous line spacing. The italic is not shown; all imagery suggests a consistent roman style with pronounced stroke modulation across letters and figures.
